Apologies for the offtopic but Antergos uses the Arch repos and they offer Wine
in multilib format: https://www.archlinux.org/packages/multilib/x86_64/wine/

This will a) allow you to run 32-bit and 64-bit applications without needing
separate Wine versions and b) is always up to date and hassle-free. 

In any case, you are still using Wine 1.6.2 so it's up to you to decide if you
wish to switch to a distro that allows you to have easy access to a more
updated version of Wine.
