You can, as long as it is social drinking. Wine is very much fine. However excessive alcohol intake can itself worsen depression. Once in a while a glass or 2 of wine wouldnt affect the illness or treatment. Good luck.

Why you want to take wine occasionally, if there is any issue you can discuss with your Psychiatrist
Occasional intake of Alcoholic beverage is first step towards alcohol dependence
As a Psychiatrist, I don't recommend
