    I had the same problem in 9.04. I couldn't get rid of it either.

    try System->Preferences->Main Menu and either uncheck, or delete the wine settings

    I'm pretty sure there's a delete button to remove the menu item

    Try going to .local/share/applications and deleting the folder called "wine," if it is still there. There might also be some Wine related stuff in .local/share/desktop-directories.
