"The increase in blood pressure is approximately 1 mmHg for each 10 g alcohol consumed..."

So, if you drink the entire bottle of wine alone and still interested in checking you BP, you'll probably see a 750*0.13/10 = 10mmHg increase which is probably within normal hourly fluctuation range anyway.

But if you drink 2 or more bottles of wine won't the blood pressure go to zero?

Depends... Alcohol intake by the person getting tested, or by the person performing the test?
