When you count each glass of airline wine as a half-glass of bartender wine, you drank 6 normal drinks total (over the course of five hours+). I would not count that as heavy drinking, but maybe as a tipsy evening.

When I lived in Moscow, at the bigger, fancier dinner parties, we would normally quaff 10 bartender-portion drinks over a six hour period. They also liked to include vodka shots during daytime meetings, so what can I say about Russians.
