Wine vinegars do still contain some level of alcohol. The vinegar taste is actually due to acetic acid, but the chemical transformation is never fully complete just sitting around a kitchen. Vinegar would be much too gross to drink in the quantity it would take to intoxicate anyone.
After your vinegar is ready, you can let it age in the bottle for a deeper, richer flavor. You can even add herbs or spices to make flavored vinegars. Stop throwing away your leftover wine! Put it to good use, and enjoy a tasty, homemade red wine vinegar for many meals to come.
