| Apr 9, 2021 at 21:34 | comment | added | SecondSun24 | Small point of clarification: "Nazarenes" above should be "nazarites" as a Nazarene is someone from the town of Nazareth. A nazarite is someone who has taken the nazarite vow, which includes abstention from grapes, wine, and all derived foods. Yeshua of Nazareth was a Nazarene. However, we see no indication that He was also a nazarite. | |

Wine yeasts are quite capable of fermenting up to 15% Wines are commonly chaptalised (have sugar added prior to fermentation) but even without this, European grapes have plenty of sugar to reach the mid teens in alcohol. | |
