I dont think it help the headache, but drink the whole bottle and soon you wont even care
I think if it continues you'd be better seeing your doctor 
Could it have been the wine that caused the headache in the first place? I love red wine, but can only have one glass as it gives me horrible headaches. White wine doesn't. Strange, that.
Back to the doc if it doesn't ease up.Wine will not help,it dehydrates you, it'll make the headache worse,especially red wine.

A persistent headache, lasting over 2 days?
Only one answer, really. And it's not drinking wine

Wine is great for headaches. Always gives me one!
Seriously - if it keeps up go to the doc's, could be migraine?

Awww Honey, I know what aching to get some sleep feels like
Maybe try what Cinds suggested. Nurofen Extra are the business, they usually work really quickly But after you've managed to sleep, get to the doc's if your headache's still there when you wake up.
A couple of old wives remedies for you to try then:
1. A very cold towel on your neck. You can use a bag of frozen peas wrapped up in the towel or (what I have used) the wine cooler thingie in the towel. Better than ice because it doesn't melt.
2. Put your hands (or feet) into very hot water, as hot as you can stand it, for as long as you can.
Both have worked for me.

never heard of hands or feet in hot water ,, will give that a go
I've never heard of the hot water one before *makes notes*
You'll turn into slimeeeecat.
Co-codamols my fave painkiller.
Lavender oil rubbed into the temples is good too,specially if you're having trouble sleeping

It's a tonic wine you require. A '63 Buckfast will hit the spot.

Does the Lavender Oil work Mazzy? I'm a terrible sleeper and am willing to try anything to see if it helps!

It works for me.
I came across it first when I had my kids and the midwife used to run us chamomile and lavender baths,then put a couple of drops of oil on our nighties.
I swear by chamomile tea as a stress buster(tho it makes me wee),but lavender oil certainly works for me.I find Kalms tablets good too.
