οἶνος ee-nos (Ancient Greek) = wine (Latin vinus ~ w οίνος)
Ancient Greeks used to drink the wine diluted with water.
The procedure of dilution is κράσις του οίνου [krasis tu eenu] = dilution of wine, and was taking place in a vessel called κρατήρ [krateer] = crater
In Byzantine times the expression «δός μοι κρᾶσιν οἴνου»
= "give me dilution of wine", was shortened to «δός μοι κρᾶσιν» = give me "krasin" and since the word "krasi" replaced the word oίνος for wine.
So κρασί [krasi] = wine in Modern Greek
