at-Tirmidhi reports that the Messenger of Allah (saw) said, "In Paradise there is a sea of honey, a sea of wine, a sea of milk and a sea of water, and the rivers flow out of these seas." [Jaami' al-Usool, 10/508]
Wine is the quintessential symbol of revelry and debauchery of the pagan gods and goddesses of the Roman and Greek mythologies. Bacchus, one of the twelve of Roman gods of Mt. Olympus, is called the god of wine.
Wine is also a symbol of misery and disease for human beings stricken with alcoholism. The word wino is a derogatory term describing a person who is chronically addicted to drinking wine.
It’s amazing that Wine –- a symbol of pagan debauchery and human misery - is embedded into the very structure and culture of Jannah!
