I believe the answer is:

bin

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'be for wine' is the definition.
(a bin is a type of container for wine)

'in the cocktail cabinet' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'BIN' is hidden within 'cocktail cabinet'.

'it may' acts as a link.
This may not be correct. Some or all of it may belong to another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for bin that I've seen before include "Litter container" , "Receptacle for kitchen rubbish" , "Storage container" , "Domestic receptacle for rubbish" , "Ordinary household receptacle for rubbish" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
