Since we started working with Schola Sarmenti almost 10 years ago, their wines have consistently been the highest-rated wines that we have in our range. To say they're experts of the Primitivo grape would be an understatement and, with a wealth of old-vine vineyards, they have the best fruit at their fingertips. So, when the conversation began about an exclusive, limited edition bottling of a big-hitting Primitivo available only to Virgin Wines customers, it was a no-brainer.
The Winemaker The Winemaker
Alessandro Calabrese
Founded in 1999, Schola Sarmenti produces great wines with love and devotion from native vines such as Fiano, Negroamaro and Primitivo, a great expression of the precious terroir of Salento. The winery is proud of its excellent and ancient vineyards with vines up to 80 years old. Alessandro Calabrese preserves the ancient training system, Alberello Pugliese. This is an important choice, a technique so difficult and so precise that only the most expert practitioners are able to craft high quality and high prestige wines using it. The measure of success is in the awards and prizes won from all over the world for their wines.
"We pride ourselves on our Primitivo here and we were delighted to be able to create this limited-edition wine exclusively for Virgin Wines. I'm very happy with the varietal character and the rich and silky texture of the finished wine." - Alessandro Calabrese, Winemaker.
