Your translation seems better than the "correct" translation. Either we are talking here about wine in general, in which case I would say "I like wines, especially red ones" or about a particular set of wines, in which case your translation seems best. In contrast, the "correct" translation seems confused between liking wine in general and liking a particular red wine from a group of wines being tasted.

"Μου αρέσει το κρασί, ειδικά το κόκκινο." Is there a specific Greek translation for "the red one" (instead of "the red")?
All adjectives in Greek can be used as "nouns", so there is no need to add a word equivalent to "one" in Greek.
Ήρθε ο έξυπνος = The smart one came
Ποιος είναι ο καλός; = Who is the good one?
No "the" in the English sentence - should be "I like wine, especially red." If you were talking about a specific red wine, in this case, you would need "this" or "that," not "the."
