Eppa Organic Sangria Embarks On 7,000-Mile Cross Country Tour To Celebrate The 'Summer Of Sangria'

WHITE PLAINS, N.Y., June 4, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Eppa Sangria, the only premium organic sangria made with superfruits and antioxidants is celebrating the launch of its first-ever mobile tour, on a mission to spread the word about making smarter choices for a healthier lifestyle while having fun this summer. The Eppa Sangria Organic Oasis: Summer of Sangria Tour will visit seven cities over two months, stopping at regional summer festivals and hot spots and offering refreshing organic sangria samples, mini yoga sessions, hand massages and giveaways.

Dancing star Cheryl Burke, whose new NBC show I Can Do That premiered last week, is kicking things off in Los Angeles. "I'm so happy to have been asked by Eppa Sangria to kick this tour off in my home state and help spread the word about making healthier lifestyle choices this summer," said Burke. "I try to exercise every day and eat right, but still like to indulge like anyone else, and wine is at the top of my list.  Since it's made with superfruits, Eppa is my go-to, guilt-free drink on a weekend with my girlfriends. It's delicious and has two times the antioxidants compared to a glass of red wine."

Taking inspiration from the premium bottled sangria, Eppa's Organic Oasis mobile unit resembles a 'garden meets market' on wheels, encased in windows and draped with grapevines and all of the superfruits found in the sangria - including pomegranate, blood orange, mangosteen and acai – for a striking never-before-seen display that catches attention as it travels the country. Keeping in line with the wellness theme, at each event consumers can sample both red and white Eppa sangria, participate in a mini yoga session with local instructors, enjoy a relaxing hand massage and check out clothing from Soybu, an eco-friendly yoga and lifestyle brand.

"Sangria consumption is at an all-time high, and wellness is still one of the hottest consumer trends," said Renato Reyes, Chief Marketing Officer, Deutsch Family Wine & Spirits. "Consumers are seeking smarter lifestyle choices, but they want it all – fun and good taste with ingredients that make them feel great about the product. We're excited to continue to cultivate and grow the number of Eppa fans around the country."
