Usually it is not required.  The i386 is supposed to be enabled by
default on all (desktop) Ubuntu amd64 systems.  There are a few
reports that certain install methods are not doing that, but otherwise
it is fine for most.

This bug tracks enabling multiarch for packages in the
depends/recommends tree of wine.  That is not related to the issue you
are experiencing.

If you do not have i386 repositories enabled, that is a
misconfiguration of your system.  Wine is not going to be installable
on pure amd64, that would be a return to the chaos before multiarch.

If you continue to have issues, I recommend you seek help on a support
forum.  See <http://www.ubuntu.com/support/>.  If that process
identifies an actual bug, then please file a new report.
