Couldn't you make a copy of your glass object, and then edit the contour
spline, i.e. removing all part except the inner surface that in the case of
wine would touch the glass. Then you could add a "cap" to this trimmed
object and voila, you should have your wine! Next you should scale the wine
object either a bit larger or smaller so it doesn't coincide with the glass
surface (I've found that scaling it slightly bigger gives more realistic
effects).
I can't test this in moray, but I've done it with other modelling packages
and hand-coded POV, so in principle it works.
