Wine can't have any firewalls. It's a 100% user space program without any abilities to sandbox: http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#head-f566a12c806a1eacaeefb7cb6419a513a773c571

Even if modified Wine will have such a "firewall" nothing can prevent windows program from directly calling system for unrestricted network access.
