This seems like a XKCD / Randall Munroe “What if” kind of question. I.e., how long would a person survive if all of the water inside them was turned into wine?
A quick search suggests that blood is 80% water. Turning that into wine at a weak concentration of 5.5% results in around at 14.5% BAC which is over 10 times greater than the highest ever recorded, so it would be certainly lethal.
That’s an understatement, it would also add a bunch of alcohol and all kinds of sugars and proteins inside every single cell. I bet that would instantly mess up every single biological process.
Seconds as wine amd water do not have the same consistency. Your blood cells won’t move effectively enough and a BAC of 6% is extremely fatal as most will die at .6%

Wine is 80-90% water, but all that alcohol and other flavor compounds directly in your bloodstream would not be good.
Yeah, but how long before I croak?!?!? I need to know now!
You somehow didn’t answer the question, and the thing you said instead is completely obvious to anyone.
If there’s a cousin of Jesus that turns people’s brains into porridge, you’ve certainly been on the receiving end of that power.
Probably 0.00 seconds.
That’s what I’m talking about. OK then.
To be specific, it’d likely immediately fuck up the electrical signals in the brain, thus killing the brain.

What if all the water turned to wine at 1 standard drink per hour
