homogeneous mixture - Are they truly uniform in composition and proportion?
Maybe it is just a question of what you mean by "evenly dissolved". True enough, in your example, the proportion of alcohol to water is not "even" - rather the solution is indeed mostly water containing only a little bit of alcohol. But for a true solution such as this, the alcohol is dispersed evenly (uniformly) throughout the bulk of the solution, so that if you repeatedly withdrew a sample and analyzed it, you would get the same result no matter which part of the liquid you sampled. 

That would not be the case for oil and water - they would exist in separate phases and which phase you sampled would give a different analysis result.
