The red grape variety originates from Italy(Trentino). Synonyms are Foglia Frastagliata, Foja Tonda, Frastagliata, Lambrusco Nostrano, Lambrusco a Foglia Frastagliata (Lambrusco di Foglia Frastagliata), Nostram, Nostram de Avi, Sbeca and Zicolada. Lambrusco a Foglia Frastagliata was the official main name until the early 1990s.
In 1992, it was renamed Enantio after the Oenanthium mentioned by Pliny the Elder (23-79); however, a possible relationship to this variety as a possible ancestor cannot be verified. The reason for this was the frequent confusion with the confusingly similar varieties Lambrusco a Foglia Tonda (Casetta) and Foglia Tonda.
