Wine plays a very important role in some religions, especially in Christianity. The mystical connection between wine and God finds its central expression in the Eucharist (thanksgiving) when bread and wine are transformed into Christ's body and blood. This goes back to the Last Supper described in the New Testament. Jesus spoke the praise, broke the bread, handed it to them and said: " Take, this is my body. Then he took the cup, said the prayer of thanksgiving, handed it to the disciples and they all drank from it. And he said to them: This is my blood, the blood of the covenant, which is shed for many (Mark 14:17-25).
