Tasting-Morada Sangria


Name: Morada Sangria
Variety: Sangria
Region: La Mancha
Country: Spain
Year: NV
Price: $4.95
Shop 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. 7% Alcohol. It is a very refreshing Sangria 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.” (Vintage Cellar, Blacksburg VA)

My review: The color of this wine was light.  The smell was fruity and very sweet, almost like candy.  You could smell the oranges, and it reminded me overall like a tropical punch.  The taste was VERY sweet, like orange Hi-C.  You couldn’t taste the alcohol in this at all.  If you are new to wine, and even moscato doesn’t tickle your fancy, DRINK THIS NOW.

I drank this without food.
