Think you mix a mean Sangria? Here’s your chance to prove it

By Uncorked | Thursday, May 1, 2008, 07:00 AM

A Taste of Wine, 90 S. Main St. in Miamisburg, will host a sangria smackdown — a sangria-making contest followed by, naturally, a sangria tasting (or in this case, tasting and judging) — on Saturday, May 3.

The sangria-making contest will start at noon, and the tasting/judging will start about 2:15 p.m. and last until about 6 p.m. Prizes — including a Taste of Wine gift certificate and donations to the winner’s charity of choice — will be awarded for both best red and best white sangrias.

Here are the Taste of Wine sangria contest rules:

— There’s a $10 entrance fee.

— The wine you use for the sangria must be purchased at Taste of Wine (the shop can special-order a wine if you desire).

— Sangria must be made at the wine shop, not mixed at home and carried in. BYOF — Bring your own fruit.

— Your recipe must make one gallon.

For more information or to RSVP, call A Taste of Wine at 937-247-1120.
