In general, you can use a white or red yeast as long as the must parameters, potential alcohol, nutrients, PH, temperature etc., are within the recommended range for the given yeast. Yeast manufacturers provide fermentation characteristics for the various strains available and you can make a selection based on this. Here's an example of some information available.
I routinely use a general purpose yeast DV10 on my reds. It does not provide any flavor enhancement, but yields good body, low off odors, and will ferment every last scrap of sugar leaving the wine bone dry, that's my goal, but your goal may be different so select accordingly.
