Best Answer

No, but the dish will taste better if red wine is used. If you don't want to consume alcohol, you should know that cooking drives off either all or most of the alcohol found in the wine. Even many non-drinking alcoholics consume dishes that contain red wine (or other Alcoholic Beverages) as an ingredient.
