Find here a collection of our most frequently asked questions concerning our Communion Wine. If you have any questions you can make enquiries online at any time or call our office between 9am-5pm Monday to Friday and we will endeavour to respond promptly.
What is the difference between Brand No. 1 and Brand No. 5 Non-Alcoholic Communion Wine?
Brand No. 1 is a blend of the juices of some of the finest grapes in the world chosen for their colour. It has a lighter red shade and a rich sweet flavour.
Brand No. 5 is from the juice of the Muscatel grape. It has a great body, a deep red colour as a result of crushing the whole grape and retains the rich fruity flavour of the Muscatel grape.
How long does the Communion wine keep once opened? What are the best storage practices?
Our wine will keep for a year once opened providing you take care to store it in a cool dark place and ensure no unused wine is returned to the bottle after use as this may lead to contamination that can adversely affect the lifespan of your wine.
What are the antiseptic properties of Frank Wright Mundy non-alcoholic wine?
Our products are produced from a grape concentrate but before allowing to ferment we add preservatives, which stops the fermentation but also gives it an antiseptic property, which is comparable to alcohol where a shared communion cup is used. It also gives it a keeping property, which we say is one year once opened and three years unopened so long as the wine is stored according to our guidelines (as outlined above).
Can I order less than a case/ just one bottle?
Yes. You can order by the individual bottle, as a half case of 6 or full case of 12.
It is also a common practice to buy in conjunction with another local church, so it is worth checking to see if this would be an option in your area.
What is the difference between non-alcoholic and de-alcoholised wine and what does it mean?
Non-alcoholic wine is a beverage which has not been fermented, instead using a formula to produce a wine and as such does not have the capacity to contain alcohol.
De-alcoholised wine is wine that is produced through fermentation as normal but has subsequently had the alcohol content removed leaving it with less than 0.05% alcohol by volume which is the minimum alcohol content required to be considered alcohol free.
We produce Non-Alcoholic Communion Wine which has not been fermented and as such is completely alcohol free.
