What Wine Would Jesus Drink? | VinePair

"It’s hard to come up with a modern-day wine that approximates what the Bible’s characters were drinking. For the red it’s especially hard because modern tech does away with the issues they were facing. But Tannat from Uruguay is probably the closest you’d come."

Feel free to debate and link information on whether or not you believe Jesus actually drank fermented wine.

Probably about 25 to 33% wine the rest water which was the common way to drink wine at the time.

It would have no doubt been very sweet, extra sugars added to overwhelm the yeast which prevented it turning to vinegar.

So often salt water was used to counteract the sweetness.
