Poderi Luigi Einaudi Terlo Vigna Costa Grimaldi

A careful selection of grapes from Vigna Costa Grimaldi at Terlo in Barolo, the family's first Barolo purchase, made in 1958.

Tasting notes

Garnet red with amber tones, intense enveloping nose, full-bodied but soft in tannin, with a long spicy finish. 2022 vintage sheet: vibrant and fruity with dark cherries, berries, spice and dried flowers, hints of bark; medium-bodied, firm and refined, juicy mid-palate and a linear finish.
