Wine for the Fourth of July

A day away and we'll be celebrating the birth of our nation, Happy Fourth of July!  While the signers of the Declaration of Independence toasted the day and the document with Madeira, today's celebrations typically call for something served a bit colder - think Sangria.

Sangrias are the perfect complement for backyard barbecues, hot summer days and festive gatherings. They are a snap to make, delicious to drink and will stretch a bottle of wine way beyond the 4-5 servings typically squeezed out of 750 ml.  Check out our top Sangria recipes or go straight for the red, white and blue Patriot Sangria.
