Summer Stone Fruit Sangria
Author Notes: I love a good sangria anytime, but I think the bubbles in this one make it extra refreshing. The beauty of sangria is that just about any fruit works, but I love making this one in particular to really highlight the great tastes of fruits and berries that peak during the summer. —MangiaPhilomena
