Context of Revelation 14:10
8Then a second angel followed, saying, “Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great, who has made all the nations drink the wine of the passion of her immorality.” 9And a third angel followed them, calling out in a loud voice, “If anyone worships the beast and its image and receives its mark on his forehead or on his hand, he too will drink the wine of God’s anger, poured undiluted into the cup of His wrath. And he will be tormented in fire and sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and of the Lamb. 11And the smoke of their torment rises forever and ever. Day and night there is no rest for those who worship the beast and its image, or for anyone who receives the mark of its name.” 12Here is a call for the perseverance of the saints, who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.

- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 10The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God - See notes on Revelation 14:8.

The image would seem to have been taken from the act of holding out a cup of poison to a condemned man that he might drink and die.

The same--Greek, "he also," as the just and inevitable retribution. wine of ... wrath of God--(Psa 75:8). without mixture--whereas wine was so commonly mixed with water that to mix wine is used in Greek for to pour out wine; this wine of God's wrath is undiluted; there is no drop of water to cool its heat.
