The 2007 Barolo Terlo opens with a high-toned, aromatic bouquet that leads to silky red fruit. This is a very pretty 2007 Barolo, even if today it comes across as unusually lean and austere for the vintage. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2025. This is another strong set of new releases from Einaudi. This year I was particularly impressed with the Barolo Costa Grimaldi. These days the Baroli see 20-25 days on the skins. Malolactic fermentation starts in steel and finishes in French oak. The 2007s spent 16 months in French oak (30% new) followed by 14 months in 50-hectoliter casks.
