April 15th, 2019 (MIDDLEBURY, VT.) — Woodchuck® Hard Cider announces the release of their newest variety,
Sangria. Similar to their Bubbly Rosé and Bubbly Pearsecco styles, Sangria has been crafted to bridge the gap
between wine and cider drinkers. The Vermont-based cider brand is excited to introduce an additional style
into this innovative market, and just in time for Summer enjoyment.
Inspired by the traditional Spanish drink, Sangria is a semi-sweet cider, showcasing balanced notes of red
wine, bright acidity, and berry. The liquid presents a full-bodied mouthfeel, complimented by a light
carbonation, and a subtle sweetness at the finish. Enjoying this delicious cocktail just got a whole lot easier!
“We are thrilled to see the response by fans, both new and old, to Woodchuck’s Bubbly Rosé and Bubbly
Pearsecco releases last year,” said Vice President of Marketing, Bridget Blacklock, “and we wanted to build on
the excitement by creating another wine style. After tasting Sangria in our innovation meetings, we knew we
had a winner. We can’t wait to see what the feedback is from fans!”
Available nationally beginning in May with a full national roll out by July, Sangria (5.5% ABV) will retail for
$9.99/ 12oz 6 pack can. It will also be available in 15.5-gallon kegs. Enjoy the newest round of innovation from
the brand that started the American cider revolution!
