Is this an alcoholic or an alcohol abuser?

My wife drinks 1 and a half bottles of wine every night.
She has for years.

I started withdrawing form alcohol one month ago. Some slips, but I'm finishing day 10 and feeling very positive.

I've said nothing of my plan to my wife, she obviously noticed my abstinence, but is showing no interest in adjusting her intake.

Should I try to talk to her, is she an alcoholic??

I've ordered the book: Drinking, a love affair. I thought I would leave it out and see if she reads it. I'm hoping it would present a clearer argument than I would.

Or should I leave her alone. An alcoholic cant control their drinking, she does stop at 1 and a half bottles. ????

Any thoughts?

thanks
