What's the common way for the seller to answer a question inquiring about a price for alcohol?
I am especially interested in what preposition would be used right before the container (which is almost always a bottle)
-- How much is the Red Bull wine?
-- It's 12 dollars per a bottle.
Or should it be
12 dollars for a bottle
or simply
12 dollars a bottle
or what?

All three options work and are widely used. But you do need to drop the article if you use 'per':
- 12 dollars per bottle
- 12 dollars for a bottle
- 12 dollars a bottle

Or just "12 dollars", since we know that wine is normally sold in bottles, it could be understood from the context.
