Shel, if you can use the wine with the alcohol cooked off, then the solution is easy peasy!
Take half a bottle of wine and put it in a saucepan over a low flame and let it simmer at a low boil for about 15-20 minutes. All the alcohol will cook off completely. Then store the liquid for later use by freezing it into ice cubes, only defrosting as much as you need for the particular dish. Alcohol doesn't freeze until a much lower temperature than water, so simply being able to make the ice cubes in your fridge will prove to you that there is none left.
