CO2 will acidify the wine, which might well alter its taste.
Carbonation (in the sense of making the wine fizzy) will not happen unless pressure is used to drive the CO2 into the wine. You need a supersaturated CO2 solution to get fizzies.

What kind of source is not pressurised? SodaStream (and other brands) work exactly this way, there's nothing fancy in the box, it's just a button letting gas out of the canister.

It's not about the source; it's about the application. The intention with wine is to let gas layer in the bottle, not introducing it into the liquid directly.
