Bold. Authentic. Riveting red from Romagna's outlaw grape heritage.
From the sun-warmed hills surrounding Ravenna, the fully organic estate of Randi crafts wines that celebrate the heart of Emilia-Romagna. Frascone Ravenna Rosso is a vibrant, expressive red, made from a thoughtful blend of 60% Malbo Gentile and 40% Longanesi. These indigenous grapes, nurtured on clay-limestone soils and caressed by Adriatic breezes, bring a unique combination of juicy fruit, aromatic complexity, and lively structure that speaks of the region’s character and tradition.
In the glass, Frascone shows a bright ruby-red hue and unfolds aromas of red cherries, wild berries, and subtle Mediterranean herbs, with gentle spice notes adding intrigue. The palate is fresh and harmonious: supple tannins frame juicy red fruit, while a mineral lift and soft herbal undertones give depth and balance. It’s a wine that’s both approachable for everyday enjoyment and distinctive in its expression of Ravenna’s terroir.
Perfect alongside pasta al ragù, roasted vegetables, grilled meats, or enjoyed on its own with friends, Frascone brings the warmth and charm of Emilia-Romagna to Irish tables, offering freshness, elegance, and personality in every glass.
