Patience in a Pitcher
A great sangria can’t be rushed. We create our Housemade Sangria in small batches, allowing the fresh fruit to macerate in the wine for a full infusion. This process ensures that every glass is naturally sweetened by the fruit’s own juices rather than heavy syrups. Because we rotate our recipes based on the time of year, you’ll find darker, spice-kissed notes in the cooler months and bright, citrusy, or stone-fruit profiles when the sun is out on the patio.
The Craft: Red vs. White
Red Sangria: Typically features a medium-bodied red wine base layered with citrus, apples, and dark berries. It’s a slightly more robust option with a hint of natural tannin.
White Sangria: Leans into the lighter side, often utilizing crisp whites paired with peaches, melons, or tropical fruits. It is exceptionally refreshing and airy.
The Point Nine Experience: A Trailside Cooler
Our Sangria is an expressive and spirited choice for those “in-between” moments—after a ride on the trail but before a big dinner. It is a fantastic partner for our handhelds. The natural acidity of the wine and the sweetness of the fruit infusion perfectly complement the savory toppings. It’s a “sunshine in a glass” experience that feels right at home in a casual, outdoor setting.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is it very sweet? We aim for a “balanced” sweetness. Because we let the fruit do the heavy lifting, it carries a natural fruit flavor rather than a sugary, candy-like finish.
