Wine in general signifies the good of charity, no. 6377. Must signifies truth from good in the natural man, no. 3580. Wine was called the blood of grapes, no. 6378. A vineyard signifies the Church with respect to truth, nos. 3220, 9139. The drink-offering in the sacrifices, which consisted of wine, signified spiritual good, which is holy truth, no. 1072.

The Divine Truth which proceeds from the Lord is called in the Word the Holy, nos. 6788, 8302, 9229, 9820, 10361.
