The 2007 Barolo Le Coste is made in a decidedly powerful style. Dark fruit, smoke, licorice and tar are some of the aromas and flavors that emerge from this intense, up-front Barolo. The 50% new oak is also noticeably felt in the wine’s sheer volume, which makes the Le Coste richer and rounder than the Castello. Still, the wine’s balance and sense of harmony come together with time in the glass. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2022. Ferruccio Grimaldi’s 2007s showed beautifully, but they needed quite a bit of time to reveal their underlying subtlety and nuance. Importer: Banville & Jones Wine Merchants, New York, NY; tel.

The bright cherry and black currant flavors take on tar, truffle and smoke accents in this ripe yet firmly tannic red. A bit too tough in the end, but full of character. Best from 2015 through 2027. 50 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barolo Select to Add
