There's nothing quite as refreshing as a pitcher of Spanish Sangria shared with friends on a hot summer day. Personally I enjoy pretty much any version of Sangria, but this one is exceptional. Do yourself a favour and use a decent wine that you'd enjoy on its own. I mean, why wreck such a delicious base by adding cheap wino wine?
