While alcohol does dehydrate and cause some of the hangover symptoms, it 
should be noted that according to experienced drinkers wine gives a MUCH 
worse hangover than vodka. The consensus is that the impurities in the wine 
are the chief culprits. Straight pure alcohol isn't a good thing, but there 
are a plethora of poisons associated with the undistilled or badly distilled 
stuff. It's one of the stated reasons they discourage distillation in the 
states.
