Commentary for Avodah Zarah 58:10
<big><strong>גמ׳</strong></big> יין מנלן אמר רבה בר אבוה אמר קרא (דברים לב, לח) אשר חלב זבחימו יאכלו ישתו יין נסיכם מה זבח אסור בהנאה אף יין נמי אסור בהנאה
GEMARA. From where do we learn [the prohibition of] wine? Rabbah b. Avuha said: The verse says, “Who did eat the fat of their sacrifices, and drank the wine of their drink-offering,” (Deuteronomy 32:38). Just as it is forbidden to derive benefit from [idolatrous] sacrifice so too it is forbidden to derive benefit from their wine.
Daf Shevui to Avodah Zarah
The Talmud learns the prohibition of libated wine from the comparison the verse makes with idolatrous sacrifices.
