“In any case, as i posted this does not hold true today.”
What doesn’t hold true today? Regarding the wine issue, you quoted Rav Ovadiah. I haven’t looked up the source, so I don’t know what he says, but I know that l’maaseh, most Rabbanim do say that it’s assur. It is something that I have had to ask sheilahs about, and I was never told that it’s not a problem.
In any event, I don’t think that has any bearing on whether or not the person is considered a tzaddik. And it certainly doesn’t make them a goy. Even if someone is a tinok shenishba and even if they are considered completely not at fault for being mechalel Shabbos, the wine is still assur. So that can’t be used as proof of whether or not they are a tzaddik.
