This must be a first world problem to end all first world problems. I think coffee filters are the way to go (and, of course, they pack tight and light). However, IME, the wine drains through them extremely slowly so you would need a capacious funnel to hold the filter and a glass' worth wine, and a degree of patience. Also a thick skin to deal with the FAs and your fellow passengers.
