The difference is in the type of sentence. There's no rule for water with a different rule for wine that you have to memorise! "Je bois l'eau" means 'I am drinking the water' whereas 'tu bois du lait' uses the partitive article 'du' (de + le), which means roughly 'some' = 'you are drinking [some] milk'
