Do Catholics regard the wine at The Wedding at Cana as "holy" wine or "normal" wine?

Accepted answer
The wine was just wine, but it was very good wine.
the steward called the bridegroom 10 and said to him, “Everyone serves the good wine first, and then the inferior wine after the guests have become drunk. But you have kept the good wine until now.” John 2:9-10
The wine no longer exists so it is not a relic. The wine was not sacramental, so it was not holy in that sense. There is no teaching that I know of that says the wine was blessed. The fact that it was consumed as any other wine would be suggests there was nothing special about the wine other than it being created miraculously and being good in the sense of being a good wine.
