The Elixir of Love is wine

The Tartan Online: "Gaetano Donizetti’s 1832 opera The Elixir of Love opened last week at the Benedum Center in a performance by the Pittsburgh Opera. Donizetti’s opera follows a lower-class man named Nemorino and his attempts to woo the educated Adina. Nemorino suffers an initial setback when soldiers come through town; the sergeant Belcore proposes to Adina and, despite his egotism, she accepts."
