The 2001 Barolo Costa Grimaldi is much more graceful than the Cannubi. It also spent less time in French oak barrels. Layers of dark red fruit, violets, spices, menthol and minerals are some of the many notes that flow from the glass. The 2001 shows great depth and richness. Early signs of tertiary aromatic complexity add personality and character, while an impeccable finish rounds things out in style. This is a great showing from the Costa Grimaldi. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2021. Einaudi’s 2001s were made during a time of transition at the estate. All things considered, the wines have held up well. I have little doubt today’s Baroli will eclipse the wines made during this period. Importer: Empson, USA, Alexandria, VA; tel. (703) 684-0900

This plump, full-bodied Barolo features an almost creamy texture, making it attractive in the relatively short term (5–8 years). Fatty, cedary notes on the nose are joined by superripe black cherries and dried spices. Finishes long, with plush tannins. Imported by Empson (USA) Ltd. ——W.E.(3/1/2006)—— 91
