The same benefits gleaned from drinking are available from taking an aspirin a day. Wine has some antioxidant effects, I guess, but they are outweighed by the detrimental effects of ingesting, what is basically, a poison. For the record; I'm not for prohibition and have the occasional drink (though, as I get older, I drink less. I have gotten hangovers from a single drink, in the recent past, and I just don't like it enough to deal with a hangover. Though, that was probably a sugar hangover from a god aweful drink my wife made).
