Etymology

From Arcadian Greek ϝοῖνος (woinos), related to Latin vīnum, Old Armenian գինի (gini), Hebrew יין (yāyin) etc.; according to the Oxford Latin Dictionary, "all probably from a common Mediterranean source". Perhaps instead from Proto-Indo-European *woino-, possibly from the root *wei(H)- (“to twist”), meaning "that of the vine", and related to dialectical ὑιήν (uiēn, “grapevine”), possibly from Proto-Indo-European *wiHēn, which also probably comes from the same root.
