Your research said, "If alcohol is mixed with water inhomogeneously, a region with a lower concentration of alcohol will pull on the surrounding fluid more strongly than a region with a higher alcohol concentration." So you wouldn't be wrong to say that looking at the legs as they make their way back down to the wine could possibly tell you about the wine's alcohol content.
