Updated → December 2025

Sweetland Cellars White Sangria is a crisp, light-bodied Maryland fruit wine bursting with tropical fruit and citrus flavors.

What makes Sweetland Cellars White Sangria 750ml stand out

Sweetland Cellars White Sangria captures the essence of carefree summer afternoons in every sip. Crafted by Boordy Vineyards—Maryland's first and oldest winery, established in 1945—this white sangria delivers an instantly refreshing experience that sets it apart from both traditional Spanish sangrias and typical fruit wines.

Unlike red sangria, which can feel heavy on warm days, this white version offers a lighter, crisper character with vibrant tropical fruit notes that dance across the palate. It arrives ready to enjoy straight from the bottle, yet also serves as an excellent canvas for creative mixing with fresh fruits, herbs and sparkling additions.

Market overview

The ready-to-drink sangria category has experienced steady growth as consumers seek convenient, flavorful options that require minimal preparation. White sangria specifically appeals to those who find traditional red sangria too heavy or tannic, opening the door for refreshing alternatives that pair well with warm-weather occasions.

Within this landscape, Maryland-produced wines occupy a unique niche. Boordy Vineyards pioneered winemaking in the state and continues leading the region's emergence as a quality wine destination. Their Sweetland Cellars line targets everyday enjoyment rather than formal occasions, positioning these fruit wines as accessible entry points for casual wine drinkers and sangria enthusiasts alike.

Style & flavor profile

Sweetland Cellars White Sangria presents a light-bodied, approachably sweet profile with crisp acidity that keeps it from becoming cloying. In the glass, expect a pale straw to light gold hue that catches the light invitingly.

The aroma immediately announces tropical intentions—pineapple, citrus zest and hints of melon. On the palate, these impressions continue alongside subtle white grape notes and a refreshing orange–lemon brightness. The finish is clean, moderately sweet and refreshing rather than heavy.

How it's made

Boordy Vineyards produces Sweetland Cellars White Sangria at their winery in Hydes, Maryland. A crisp white wine base is blended with carefully selected tropical fruit flavors to create a harmonious, ready-to-drink sangria.

Rather than relying on fresh fruit macerating in the bottle, the fruit character is integrated during production so every bottle tastes consistent. The white wine foundation brings structure and acidity, while the fruit additions contribute sweetness and aromatic lift.

Food pairings

• Spicy Asian cuisine: Thai curries, Vietnamese pho or Sichuan dishes—sweetness calms the heat and the fruit notes echo Southeast Asian flavors.
• Fresh seafood & ceviche: Light white fish, shrimp cocktail and citrus-marinated ceviche pair naturally with the wine’s citrus and pineapple tones.
• Grilled chicken & summer salads: BBQ chicken, fruit-topped green salads or grain bowls with tropical fruit all work well.
• Fresh fruit & light desserts: Fruit tarts, panna cotta with berries, melon platters or citrus-based sweets are great partners.

How to serve

Serve well-chilled, around 40–45°F (4–7°C). Refrigerate the bottle for a couple of hours and keep it on ice during service.

Use white wine glasses, stemless glasses or tumblers. For extra refreshment, pour over ice with mint and sliced citrus or melon; add a splash of club soda for a spritzy twist.
