Try enabling smoothed fonts in WINE without that option enabled, and it will not work and fonts will appear jagged and un-antialiased.
Yup, I had similar problems. I have been following the wine development branch and they finally caught up to the freetype changes in 3.18. Since then it has worked fine for me.

Wine 3.18 Released

What's new in this release:
Subpixel font rendering with FreeType >= 2.8.1.
Support for OAEP algorithm in RSA encryption.
Array marshalling fixes in DCOM.
Improved DPI scaling in the Wine console.
Various bug fixes.
