Giacomo Grimaldi 2005 Le Coste Nebbiolo (Barolo)

  • Cellar Selection
  • Online Exclusive
  1. $75
Founded in 1930 by Ferruccio Grimaldi, this family-run estate is now showing some very exciting results. The La Coste Barolo is a tight and focused wine that promises to age beautifully over many more years. The tannins and acidity are perfectly integrated and the nose boasts bright and intense layers of forest fruit, exotic spice, mesquite and black licorice.  — M.L.  (2/1/2010)

Barolo Sotto Castello di Novello is a gorgeous wine with opulent chocolate and cherry notes backed by rich texture and concentration. This wine shows long aging potential thanks to the brightness of its fruit, its natural complexity and the beautiful power of the mouthfeel.  — M.L.  (9/1/2011)

Giacomo Grimaldi 2007 Le Coste Nebbiolo (Barolo)

Barolo Le Coste is a masculine, taut expression of Nebbiolo with dark color and concentration set against aromas of cured meat, bresaola, sweet oak, toasted nut and sweet red cherry. The wine could age 4–6 years more to give its tight tannins a slightly softer edge  — M.L.  (9/1/2011)

Giacomo Grimaldi 2005 Sotto il Castello di Novello Nebbiolo (Barolo)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $50
This expression of Nebbiolo offers elegant layers of berry, smoke, spice and cola that build in intensity and persistency over the palate. This is a cellarworthy wine that will drink best five to 10 years from now. When it’s ready, pair it with braised lamb with aromatic herbs.  — M.L.  (2/1/2010)

Giacomo Grimaldi 2006 Le Coste Nebbiolo (Barolo)

Very different than the 2005 vintage, Barolo Le Coste from Giacomo Grimaldi opens with a brownish-amber color and ripe berry or candied fruit aromas. There are beautifully fine aromas of tar, asphalt and licorice in the background that help balance it out. A Marc de Grazia selection; various American importers.  — M.L.  (12/1/2010)
