Alcohol question



Newbie here. I have a query about mulled wine. If I want to make a mulled wine recipe, and alcohol and water are eternally miscable, at what temperature does the alcohol evaporate (or boil out) of the heated wine? Certainly simply avoiding boiling the mixture doesn't salvage the greatest amount of alcohol. Certainly the alcohol will evaporate or boil out sooner? Am I incorrect?
