While we were traveling back east we tasted a few of the local wines but never got around to sharing them with you all...finally we have gathered the information and here are the results...
Beso Del Sol Sangria – Produced in Spain this Spanish Wine
Company knows how to make a smooth clear finish with just enough sweetness for
our enjoyment. It has 8.5% alcohol that we rated high giving it a 9.2 because
of its delightful taste and smoothness. We paid $19.99 on sale for a box which
holds 4 bottles that works out to be about $5 per bottle and we would highly
recommend it to others and we will be looking for it in the stores again.
Funf Wines Sangria – The bottling caught our attention and the
fun name makes this a clean, clear taste with just enough flavoring from the
citrus and summer fruits that the sweetness is not overbearing. With 7.5%
alcohol we gave it a rating of 8.9 and would highly recommend it and we would
be looking to purchase it again.
Forbidden Fruit Winery Sangria – Made in Michigan with 9%
alcohol we rated this one a bit lower at a 7.6. It was good but not great and
we would not go out of our way to purchase again. There was nothing wrong with
it but there was no pop, no zest, no burst of flavor.
Meier’s Wine Cellars White Catawba – Light, crispy &
spunky! Catawba is a grape that is grown predominantly in the east where we are
enjoying a lot of the sweeter wines! With 12% alcohol that is produced in Silverton,
Ohio that we rated a 9.3 that will be purchasing this one again!
Leelanau Cellars Witches Brew – This very strong red wine that
has a 12.5% alcohol content from Leelanau, Michigan is not one of our favorites
but we still gave it a 7.1 rating. With a firm taste of cinnamon, clove and
nutmeg it would be a perfect drink served warm on a cold evening but not as a
chilled wine, more like a cider.
