What is the typical alcohol content range for table wines?

Table wines typically fall within an alcohol content range of 8-15% ABV (Alcohol by Volume), which corresponds to the correct answer. This range is characteristic of standard wines consumed with meals, allowing for a balance between the flavor profile and the presence of alcohol. Most table wines, whether red, white, or rosé, are crafted to have an alcohol content that enhances their taste without overwhelming the palate.

Wines in this category are generally fermented from grapes and designed to be enjoyed in social settings, paired with various foods. A lower alcohol content can affect the wine's body and perceived sweetness, while higher alcohol levels beyond this range can lead to a more intense flavor and potentially diminish the drinkability when paired with food.

In contrast, the other choices reflect different categories of wine. Wines with an alcohol content of 3-6% ABV are more akin to very light dessert wines or specialty beverages like low-alcohol wines, which are not typical for table settings. The 6-10% ABV range would typically represent lighter wines or some lower-end culinary wines, not the standard table wines. Finally, wines with 15-20% ABV would usually indicate fortified wines like Port or Sherry, which have added alcohol
