Wine and dental implants: Do I Need to Stop Drinking?

I had a dental implant placed today and we are leaving for Napa in 7 days. I’ve read not to drink wine for 14 days. I am devastated to go to the wine country and not taste the wine. Is this true? Do I need to stop drinking wine for 14 days after getting a dental implant?

There is no specific instructions regarding drinking wine and implants or any relevance. However, if you are taking narcotic pain medications, then you should be cautious not to combine them.
