What is a good sweet red wine to make Sangria with?

I want to make Sangria this coming weekend, what is a good kind of sweet red wine to make the Sangria with?|||Hello there.....





My sister in law is from Barcelona, Spain. She said that you can use any good red wine. The trick is not the sweet wine but the sweet things that you put into it. Like 7-up, real fruit juice and then the fruits with orange and lemon slices. You cannot get more authentic than someone from Spain. LOL


Take Care,


Stay Well.|||You don't make Sangria with sweet red wine. I would recommend a Sangre de Toro or any reasonably priced red wine. The sweetness comes from the fruit and the orange juice you put in it after the fruit has soaked in some rum. |||Merlot , or a red Riesling
