This gives the fruit time to soften and release the sugars and flavor.

What’s the Best Wine for Peach Sangria?

We like rose wine for peach sangria because most roses are sweet with wonderful fruity, floral flavors.

However, you’re free to use a light and crisp white wine if you want.

(If you like a sweeter sangria, a Moscato or Riesling could be nice.)

Red wine will not be a good candidate for peach sangria.

Stir in peaches and raspberries.
