God Of Wine Greek

Jesus and the fig tree. Is this a link to the Cult of Dionysus?
A symbol of Dionysus, the Greek God of unmixed wine, was the fig. Of course Jesus’ first miracle was to provide unmixed wine to a wedding. Is Matthew 21:18-22 meant to strengthen the association of Jesus to Dionysus? Also remember that Jesus cured the leopards, and leopards are also associated with Dionysus.
Dionysus was born of a virgin and, as the Holy Child, was placed in a manger. He was a traveling teacher who performed miracles. He “rode in a triumphal procession on an ass.” He was a sacred king killed and eaten in an eucharistic ritual for fecundity and purification. Dionysus rose from the dead on March 25.
He was the God of the Vine, and turned water into wine. He was called “King of Kings” and “God of Gods.” He was considered the “Only Begotten Son,” Savior,” “Redeemer,” “Sin Bearer,” Anointed One,” and the “Alpha and Omega.” He was identified with the Ram or Lamb. His sacrificial title of “Dendrites” or “Young Man of the Tree” intimates he was hung on a tree or crucified.
PS: Jesus called himself the Vine [Dionysian clue?]
