Brief Answer:
No , you should not

Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXX,

Morphine can stay in blood up to 12 hours . Mixing with alcohol and morphine is not at all recommended as it can lead to side effects of nausea, vomiting, changes in blood sugar levels and even in blood pressure, irregular heart beats and fainting.

This means that you shouldn't drink wine except after 12 hours from morphine . I hope I answered your question.
