Description
Giacomo Grimaldi, Barolo, Le Coste , 2010
Levels IN, excellent appearance. Barolo. Unusually deep ruby with orange tinges. Oak and really sweet fruit and lots of acidity giving a nice contrast. Firm grip and lots of fruit on this finish. Solid build. Popular but well made. (WS) Walter Speller (May 2014) JancisRobinson.com
This superb collection is part of the estate of a passionate wine lover who generously shared his knowledge and bottles with family and friends. Acquired over the past two decades from well-respected UK merchants, the collection brims with wines both for current drinking and future enjoyment: Claret, Sauternes, Rhone and Tuscan wines were particular favourites, not forgetting New World regions and fabulous Vintage Ports. All lots were meticulously stored in a temperature-controlled cellar in an imposing Bath stone townhouse and recently packed by Bid for Wine before transfer to LCB.
