Wine will not convert into an explosive, but vinegar will.
For a small-level demonstration, do this on your kitchen
counter so you can dump it into sink.

Pour 4 oz of vinegar into a plastic cup.
Add 1 tsp of red pepper
Add 1 raw egg (crack it open and do not let any of the shell fall in)
Stir vigorously for 15 seconds.

Place the egg shell on a paper towel, roll up the paper towel, and
break the egg shell into several pieces

Add 1 tablespoon of baking soda.
Add the mashed up egg shell.

As the egg shell contacts the liquid it give a short pop.
