I would guess that the 800mL bottle of wine weighs more.

1. There's 40% more volume.
2. Alcohol is less dense than water and the wine contains a smaller percentage of alcohol.

The wine itself weighs more than the gin, however, gin bottles have been known to be heavier than wine bottles, so if you are including the bottle weight, it could be the other way around.
