Sangria is a delicious and refreshing drink. Since Sangria is the Spanish word for blood it would make sense to make it with red wine and that is exactly what I did. I used Tennessee Valley Winery Blackberry wine. For another fabulous idea top your favorite cheesecake recipe with a Blackberry wine sauce and fresh or frozen blackberries.
