This is dependent on the size of the "glass". The only comparisons that make sense are those dealing with equal and defined measures. On a measure for measure basis, wine has about 3 times the alcohol content of beer. But if the bartender pours a 5 ounce glass of wine (fairly typical) and a 16 ounce pint glass of beer (fairly typical), the alcohol content is about the same.

There is between three and four times more alcohol in vodka than in white wine, given an equal portion. Proof is 1/2% alcohol. So, 100 proof vodka is 50% alcohol. White wine is about 12% alcohol, thus 24 proof. So 100 proof vodka has roughly four times the alcohol of white wine, 86 proof vodka a little less than that.
Although beer is generally in the range of 3 to 5% alcohol and wine somewhere around 11%, BrewDog has reclaimed the world record for the strongest beer with a 55% ABV beer named "The End of History"
Standard servings of beer, wine, and distilled spirits contain the same amount of pure or absolute alcohol.
Most champagne is in the 12 to 13%. Wine will variy from 11% to as high as 16 or 17% (these higher ones are found in red zinfandel sometimes).
