Without more information this is impossible to answer: what kind of internet connection do you use? Do you see any movement in a progress bar? – Rinzwind Dec 6 '12 at 8:18
Can you please open up a terminal and type sudo apt-get install wine and post the output? – Chris Wilson Dec 6 '12 at 12:06

It's a heavy package, about 150 MB. It might take >24 hours on a 256kbps modem.
