The 2022 Barolo Terlo Vigna Costa Grimaldi is clean, bright and nervy, as wines from this site tend to be. Crushed rocks, blood orange, sage, mint and white pepper give the 2022 its lifted, chiseled profile. High-toned aromatics resonate on the close. All the elements are so well balanced. This is another exceptionally fine, brilliant wine from Einaudi.

Flowers and red fruit on the nose. Ample and accessible, with supple tannins. The red fruit is friendly, and overall it’s a very open, youthful Barolo that is drinkable now.

A transparent ruby hue, the 2022 Barolo Terlo Vigna Costa Grimaldi is beautifully expressive with aromas of Bing cherries, blood orange, fresh licorice spice, and floral perfume. Medium-bodied, it shines with clarity and harmony across the palate, supported by ripe tannins and balanced acidity. Aged partially in small tonneaux, the wine gains softness through controlled oxidation that helps tame the naturally firmer tannins of the site.

Fragrant and decidedly captivating, the main profile displays notes of cherries, raspberries, currants, lime blossoms, mixed mandarins, and guarana. The citrusy undertones recall lime, bergamot, and hawthorn. Medium body, extremely elegant, precise tannins, and a graceful finish. Vigna Costa Grimaldi gives its all in this challenging vintage.
