Wine is still being brewed. We are still discussing how it should be
done.
The best I know to tell you is to get the source (I quote
<wine>/ANNOUNCE):
"
http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/ALPHA/wine/development/Wine-20011108.tar.gz
ftp://ftp.infomagic.com/pub/mirrors/linux/sunsite/ALPHA/wine/development/Wine-20011108.tar.gz
ftp://ftp.fu-berlin.de/unix/linux/mirrors/sunsite.unc.edu/ALPHA/wine/development/Wine-20011108.tar.gz
ftp://orcus.progsoc.uts.edu.au/pub/Wine/development/Wine-20011108.tar.gz
It should also be available from any other site that mirrors ibiblio.org.
For more download locations, see http://ftpsearch.lycos.com. These
locations also hold pre-built documentation packages in various
formats: wine-doc-html.tar.gz, wine-doc-txt.tar.gz, wine-doc.pdf.gz
and wine-doc.ps.gz.

cd to the directory where you unpack it, read the README, and carry on.
Please read past the QUICKSTART to the REQUIREMENTS, then if you like
you can go back to QUICKSTART.
