RAMONA was created with a rebellious spirit and an ambitious objective - to offer high-quality wine, often blended with fruit, in fun little packages. The team at Ramona celebrates organic growing practices and a belief that drinking wine can be spontaneous and portable; it need not be relegated to the dinner table.
The project is named after Jordan Salcito's youngest sister, who became obsessed with the fictional literary character Ramona Quimby when she was younger and renamed herself Ramona, refusing to answer to any other name. As 'Ramona,' Anne-Marie developed a mischievous, fun-loving alter-ego. That independent spirit informs the spirit of Ramona.
Tasting Notes: A lightly sparkling wine with notes of citrus zest, raspberries, blood orange, and hibiscus.
