Complex, intense and sophisticated world of aromas that opens with sweet ripe black cherries and berries, followed by seductive spicy notes of cocoa and vanilla. Rich, intense and persistent on the palate with soft and silky tannins. Soft balance and elegant opulence.<\/p>\n
The vineyard
\nThe focus of the Schola Sarmenti project is on old, gnarled vines. Behind dry stone walls, hedges and trees, vineyards have been preserved over the last 80-100 years and were still cultivated in the old Apulian wine training “Alberello”. (A kind of “tree training” without a wire frame.) Since the vines stand individually (with their own character, so to speak) and give less yield than with modern training methods, they were no longer interesting to anyone. It takes strong and experienced hands to continue all the work on each of these vines throughout the year. However, it was precisely this old Apulian culture that Alessandro Calabrese and Lorenzo Marra wanted to preserve and leased precisely these plots of land to the Schola Sarmenti. The winery is located near Nardo in the province of Lecce, just south of the well-known Manduria region. The wines are exceptional and cannot be compared to the “usual” Primitivo or Negroamaro qualities on the market.<\/p>\n
