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.
Pentuma Primitivo Tasting Notes by Wine Expert, David Andrews, DipWSET
An unctuous and rich wine displaying treacle & caramel. Filled with dark fruits and oak influence, giving vanilla and chocolate - It's full and incredible to say the least. The tannins are pretty hefty too, but nice and fine so they go down easy. Overall, whilst a rich wine with some serious power, it's beautifully balanced keeping it very well controlled.
