# 2098 There is Truth in Wine?
Question
Can one be yotzi mishloach manos by giving two kinds of wine? What about wine and grape juice?
Answer
Some Poskim opine that drinks should not be used as mishloach manos (Afarkasta De’Aniya 25, Orchos Chaim 112). Beis Yitzchok (Megilla 7a) asserts that solid food together with a satisfactory liquid such as wine, is acceptable. However most Poskim follow the opinion of the Mishna Berura (695: 20) who maintains that since drinking is part of eating, sending two kinds of wine would be correct. (See Piskei Teshuvos 695: n. 41)
Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is similar.
