Jesus wasn't a sinner, so that means if He did have a glass of wine with His dinner then it simply wasn't a sin. There's no way to "make" our Savior a sinner by examining history. We don't really know either way, so you can't legitimately swing the debate one way or the other.

Scripture says not to be drunk with wine "wherein is excess." The same principle applies to gluttony, but we wouldn't say that eating is wrong; we only point to over-eating as being wrong. If your logic held true, then food would also be sinful since it "creates the sin" of gluttony. "If gluttony is a sin, then the food leading up to it is 'creating' the sin."
