Sangria gets better and better as it sits. Most sangria recipes call for the wine to rest overnight, or at the very least, for a few hours in the refrigerator. This lets the fruit infuse the wine, letting its juices get in the mix and sweeten up the drink
Not to limit your white wine choices—pour what you like, though the best bets are dryer and/or more acidic wines, anything like a Riesling or Pinot Grigio will work. Moscato also works really nicely here, since sangria is sweeter by nature.
