A wine bottle or a bottle of wine?

Do you say, a "wine bottle" or a "bottle of wine"?

If both are possible, do they convey the same meaning?

If not, when should I use each of them?

Would you please give me a few examples?

Thank you.

Put the wine bottles in the recycle bin for glass.
Get a bottle of wine from the wine cellar. We will have it after dinner.
