Wine is used in the Eucharist as it symbolizes the blood of Christ, which was shed for the redemption of humanity. The use of fermented wine also reflects the biblical traditions and the Last Supper, where Jesus shared wine with his disciples. Additionally, the transformation of wine into the blood of Christ during the sacrament underscores the mystery of faith and the sacrificial nature of the Eucharist. Grape Juice, while non-alcoholic, does not carry the same theological significance in this context.

If you boiled wine would it make grape juice?

No, boiling wine would not turn it back into grape juice. Wine is fermented and contains alcohol, flavors, and compounds developed during fermentation, which are not present in grape juice. Boiling wine would primarily evaporate the alcohol and alter its flavors, but it would not revert it to its original state as grape juice. Instead, you would end up with a concentrated liquid that lacks the characteristics of the original grape juice.
