There is a different of opinion among Hanafi and Shafi fiqa schools regarding V.
There is also different of opinion among Islamic Scholars regarding wine V. Since there is possibility of wine being not 100% converted to acetic acid and water. There is left over wine in the wine vinegar, we consider wine V not a Halal V. We recommend distilled white vinegar because it is made from dilute alcohol.
