Ingredients

• 3 cups stemmed seedless red grapes
• 2 oranges, cut crosswise into 1/2-inch wheels
• 2 lemons, cut crosswise into 1/2-inch wheels
• 2 (750 milliliter) bottles rosé
• 8 ounces simple syrup
• 8 ounces brandy
• Ice

Preparation

Step 1

Light a hardwood charcoal fire. Put the grapes on a perforated grill sheet or in a grill basket and grill over high heat, tossing occasionally, until they just start to burst, about 6 minutes. Transfer the grapes to a plate to cool completely.

Meanwhile, grill the orange and lemon wheels over high heat, turning once, until lightly charred, about 6 minutes. Transfer to a plate to cool completely.

In a large pitcher, combine the wine with the simple syrup, brandy and grilled fruit and stir well. Refrigerate until the sangria is chilled and the flavors are blended, at least 1 hour and up to 8 hours. Serve the sangria over ice.
