The Perfect Sangria for Celebrating Cinco de Mayo (at home)
De la Costa was born in 1976 when owner Joseph Glunz Sr. became the first person to put wine in a keg. He created 4 other kegged wines as well but the Sangria rapidly became a local favorite.
What makes de la Costa so popular is its hand-crafted taste of pure flavors and harmonious balance of Sangria’s sweetness with vibrant acidity. Made as any typical wine from fermented grapes, de la Costa Sangria comes in 3 flavors. The White is made from a base of Sauvignon Blanc, the Red from a base of Zinfandel and Merlot, while the Rosé is a bit of a blend from the White and Red.
De la Costa is also unique for its custom packaging in a bottle type that Joseph Glunz Sr. discovered during his Second World War job of cleaning and recycling bottles. The bottle has a swing-top that is airtight and resealable which keeps the Sangria fresh if you don’t drink the wine all in one sitting. Once all the wine is consumed, the bottle can then be easily reused for something else.
