For anyone who likes any kind of red wine for making red sangria as long as they enjoy it.|||Traditional Sangria does not use the finest wines. In fact it was stated that Sangria was created to make use of the standard table wines that people did not want to consume on their own.
Use whatever wine you feel comfortable with and enjoy drinking. When I am making a red sangria I like to use softer fruit-forward red wines like Beaujolais, or a good Tempranillo. In a pinch you can even go with an inexpensive Lambrusco wine. There are other components of the sangria that can make it very good like the fruit and liquors that you add.

I don't even know why you would choose zin at all. A traditional spanish Rioja would be best. If you do want to use zin, stick with an inexpensive, reliable option like Bogle Old Vines, Peachy Canyon, Fetzer, or Pepperwood.|||Why would you want to spend extra money on something that's not going to be as traditional or as good?
California zinfandels tend to have a retail price that is higher than Spanish temranillos and riojas -- which are what you want when making sangria.|||You want a stronger more flavoursome wine - Spanish Rioja or a Chilean red.
