You can approximate the alcohol content of wine simply by looking at the amount and size of the drops of wine left on your glass. The thicker and more numerous the droplets, the higher the alcohol. While this will not determine an exact amount of alcohol, it will allow you to compare alcohol content between wines.

Alternatively you can check the bottle.
