Commentary for Berakhot 85:7
ולהאיך לישנא דאמר רב לא שנו אלא פת דמהניא ליה הסבה אבל יין לא מהניא ליה הסבה קשיא סיפא
And according to the other version of Rab's statement, viz. : "This teaching applies only to bread where it is beneficial to recline, but with wine it is not beneficial to recline," the latter part [of the Baraita] is in disagreement !
Abraham Cohen Footnotes to the English Translation of Masechet Berakhot
Because it states "Wine is brought to them and...one may say it for all." But if reclining is not beneficial with wine, let each say it for himself !
