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. 7% Alc. 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.

My Thoughts: This was interesting. Fruit punch mixed with lemonade. Not getting any flavors I would associate with wine. A sort of medicine cherry flavor. Coats the palette a bit like cough syrup too. It could be good cold on a warm summer's day, but then again I could have a Vihno Verde and be very pleased.
