In Sufi terminology, wine is a metaphor for Divine Love. It does not mean the intoxicating beverage known to drunkards and alcoholics.

Cupbearer
He has nothing in common with the servant who pours wine in an ordinary tavern. The term is used to describe the Sheikh, that is, the true spiritual guide, who offers the wine of Divine Love.
(2/)
Wine Glass
The heart of the disciple or seeker.
Tavern
The place where Divine Love is dispensed. It is not an ordinary drinking parlor, but for example, the Tekke, Zawiya or Mosque.
