Answers:
Taurine is an amino acid that is used in our body for a number of activities. A couple of which are to act as a neural regulator, and to protect heart function. Substantial amounts of Taurine are also found in our eyes and stomach bile. There is no doubt that Taurine is beneficial, but I could not find any data that indicated it would give you an energy boost.
Taurine acts as a neural regulator. In fact, it is one of those chemicals in our brain that is responsible for a calm positive mood. Perhaps the wings effect is referring to the fact that the Taurine will make you calm and clear-headed. There has certainly been data to demonstrate that Taurine is effective when dealing with stress.
Since Rockstar and all those energy drinks have nearly the same ingredients in them, this is from research on Red Bull, but it still gives you some of the info that you wanted.
