Schola Sarmenti Cubardi IGT 3 L i Trækasse

Schola Sarmenti’s 2021 Cubardi is a rich, fruit-forward Primitivo from Puglia, presented in an impressive 3-litre wooden case. Primitivo—closely related to California’s Zinfandel—has long been one of the region’s signature grapes, and this bottling puts its ripe, generous character centre stage.

Tasting Notes
Deep and dark in appearance, with an intense aroma of ripe fruit, accompanied by hints of tobacco, chocolate and coffee. The palate is full and powerful, bringing sweet, ripe blackberry and forest-berry flavours together with notes of liquorice, vanilla and chocolate from oak ageing. Enjoy it for its generous fruit and spice while those flavours are expressive; no specific bottle-ageing window is provided.

Production
Made from Primitivo in Puglia, in the Salento area, Cubardi is aged for six months in medium-toast French oak barrels. Details of the harvest method and vinification are not provided.

Food & Serving
Serve at around 16–18°C with grilled or braised red meat, sausages, barbecue dishes or mature hard cheeses. Given its concentration and oak influence, decanting for 30–60 minutes can help open up the aromas; pour carefully from the large-format bottle.

Producer
Schola Sarmenti was founded to preserve Salento’s winemaking heritage and maintain a close connection with its land and generations of local growers. Puglia was once known largely for supplying wines to other regions, but its modern wineries now increasingly bottle and sell wines under their own names. Schola Sarmenti is among the producers showcasing the area’s distinctive varieties, including Primitivo and Negroamaro.
