If you question if you're an alcoholic, you probably are. Normal drinkers don't even question their drinking habits. Some of the things you mention are typical ways we think/act. Like the wine experiment. You are being honest about it. That is a huge step for recovery. Seek help, like AA, go to a meeting. You'll feel right at home. I wish you well. You can avoid the heartache that longer term addiction can cause. I almost lost my life. Hope you'll go. It's the most loving thing you can do for yourself.
