Started gralise for nerve pain. problems other than sleepiness or dizziness with a glass of red wine in late afternoon or lunesta (eszopiclone) for sleep?

Lunesta (eszopiclone): Lunesta (eszopiclone) and gabapentin work on the same GABA-nergic system (albeit in different ways). Adding the 2 of these drugs together plus alcohol is not advisable - as they would have additive effects on each other and increase the risk of CNS depression.
