The phrase "winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God" uses "winepress" as a metaphor for divine judgment, where the "wine" being pressed is symbolic of the wrath itself, not a beverage to be consumed. There is no indication of the nature of the wine (fermented or unfermented) as a drink.
