    Robert Mondavi Woodbridge Sweet Wines is a perfect wine to use for melon cocktails, especially in the summer time. It is a blend of Gewurztraminer, Chardonnay, Viognier and Verdehlo and has nice apple and citrus notes. This sweet wine is great to sip on its own or works nicely for sangria or a wine cocktail.
