Does anyone know what kind of wine the Catholic church uses?

[Kaslin]

Red wine

While the standard wine in use in the USA is generally a red table wine, any wine made from grapes is acceptable.

In large parts of the German Catholic world, whites are quite common.

But red is generally preferred worldwide, because of its physical resemblance to blood - reminding the faithful of what the wine actually becomes when it is consecrated.

At a Anglican church I used to attend (the one in question), they actually used Port. Others I’ve seen used Mogen David Kosher wine.
