RAMONA
Megahit organic wine spritz cult sensation is here
Ramona_Ruby_Grapefruit

Wine just got a whole lot cooler. And its name is Ramona Ruby Grapefruit, an Italian wine spritz with a New York attitude.

Jordan_Salcito_founder_and_creater_of_RAMONARAMONA is the brainchild of the super talented Jordan Salcito (pictured), a veteran sommelier and Director of Wine Special Projects for David Chang’s Momofuku Group. The group's selection has been awarded “Most Original Wine List in the World” by World of Fine Wine, so you’re in safe and rather cutting-edge hands. She is obsessed with the spritzes of the 80s and has grown frustrated with the stuffy nonsense that sometimes surrounds fine wine. This drove her to create RAMONA, which is the perfect blend of nostalgia, innovation and Riviera fun, all while keeping in step with her wine roots.

Named after her sister’s mischievous childhood alter ego (she was a fan of Beverly Cleary, a popular children's book writer), Ramona was born from her thirst for a portable, high-integrity spritz. Ramona is all organic and certified, all natural, vegan and gluten-free, packaged in an environmentally-friendly BPA-free recyclable aluminium can.

Jordan’s initial test batch of RAMONA in late 2016 sold out in the blink of an eye. It has since become a runaway hit in the New York City dining scene and invaded the rest of the USA to similar success. Ramona is now all the rage at the trendiest restaurants, bars and clubs stateside. Trendsetting superstars Rihanna, Alicia Keys and Kanye West have all been spotted sipping on Ramona.

Ramona’s innovation wasn’t all about glitz and Instagram likes (although they helped): Jordan Salcito was a semi-finalist for the prestigious James Beard award for “Outstanding Wine Professional – Ramona” in 2018 in recognition of her groundbreaking high-quality beverage creation.

What is RAMONA?

RAMONA is a modern artisanal Italian wine spritz with a New York attitude: “It’s wine, but cooler.”

For those seeking something between a cold beer and a glass of wine, Ramona is the perfect summer drink, with its slightly effervescent, zesty citrusy flavour. It’s Sicilian dry white wine made from organic Muscat-like zibibbo grapes, which is blended with natural ruby grapefruit flavours. The taste is light and refreshing, with an interesting bitter citrus edge from the grapefruit to round out the slight sweetness. All this goodness at a modest 7% alcohol.

With no requirement for fancy glassware, a bottle opener of any kind, or even a special occasion, Ramona is the perfect refresher for picnics, cook-outs, parties, barbecues, boats, beachsides, poolsides and everything social. Ramona is 100% tropics friendly.


Yay, it's Ramona!

How do I drink Ramona?

Ramona_serving_suggestionsBesides having it well chilled and feeling consequentially happy? Many ways!

For one, pop it open and enjoy straight away; it’s especially moreish on the rocks. Ramona drinks like a dream, works wonders as a mixer, and in a glass its vibrant grapefruit hue is more than easy on the eyes.

If you’re feeling creative, try mixing it with tequila and lime juice to create a Ramona Paloma.

We are proud that Singapore is one of the few places on this planet to carry Ramona (alongside the US, Canada, UK and Ireland). We are stoked to offer them to you today.

Vogue magazine said that Ramona “comes packaged in an adorable can that is practically begging you to share all over Instagram.” Eater exclaimed: “It’s a dream come true.” GQ nodded: “Convenient, portable, and dangerously poundable.” Leading wine and food expert Fiona Beckett concluded simply: “I just love it.”

Ramona Ruby Grapefruit Wine Spritz comes in a 4-pack of 250-ml cans that are easy to stash in the fridge. And knowing how dangerously addictive these babies are, we also offer Ramona in full case box of 12 x 4-pack for unhindered joyful imbibing and even greater savings.

Ramona is now in-stock. Orders will be processed first-come first-served subject to availability and final written confirmation. Usual terms and conditions apply.
open-quote Perhaps the biggest leap in cans, and an unqualified success, comes from Jordan Salcito, a sommelier turned wine entrepreneur, who has reimagined the canned wine cooler . . in a period of professional frustration with the fine-wine culture, she hit on once-déclassé wine coolers, made with organic wines from Italy blended with organic grape juice as a sweetener . . It’s absolutely delightful.
— Eric Asimov, The New York Times
