This passage calls it wine. It is a debate that many believe is wine he was given.

I'm not interested in debating that point. If it contained wine instead of vinegar (the plain vinegar that I always assumed), then that's news to me, but I don't have an issue with it.
You didn't answer my earlier question, though...
Where in scripture does it ever say that Jesus took the Nazarite vow, (which required a public, verbal declaration) and why was He referred to as a winebibber if He didn't drink any sort of wine/grape juice/strong drink with His meals?
