Tasting- Morada Sangria

Name: Morada Sangria
Variety: Red blend
Region: N/A
Country: Spain
Year: Non-vintage
Price: $4.95

Winery Review: Morada Sangria is a traditional Spanish drink made with red wine and citrus extracts. Garnet color and fresh on the palate. Pasteurization preserves the color, aromas, and flavors. At 7% alcohol, it is very refreshing with around 85 grams of sugar. Sangria is now one of the hottest items in the beverage industry and it's growing exponentially year to year. Serve well chilled, on its own or with lemonade and slices of fruit like peach, banana, or apple.

My Review: This Sangria has a refreshing color, lighter than most reds. The nose is very full of fruit, particularly orange and cranberry. The Sangria is very sweet and refreshing, it tastes like cranberry juice with a splash of orange juice in it. It would go down easily on a hot summer day.
