True. You should tint the container object to have coloured caustics.
Also, you can use fade_distance instead of absorbing media, with little loss of
quality and considerable gain of speed.
Media is necessary only if you go for all-out realism, i.e. you want the volume
of the wine to interact with the light_source.
