    December 27, 2022 - Opened for 2.5 hours. Color is dark brick red with orange rim. On the nose: Tar, rose, cherry, forest floor and balsamic vinegar notes. On the palate: Tart cherry pastilles , baking spices , forest floor, rose and lots of tannins still. This is very nice and refined. I think a lot of life left in this.

    November 19, 2018 - Compare to 1993 and 1994, nose was quite floral and aromatic with some red and purple fruits, tea leaves, tobacco, roasted herbs, similar to 1985’s nose, however, on the palate, the finish was a bit short, and seemed a bit muted overall, I did sense nice underlying sweet tannin and modest fruits for this wine, I wonder if the wine was still too young or it was actually past peak? Hard to make my conclusion

    November 7, 2018 - The nose showed dusty soil tones with sweet spices, hints of dried orange, raspberry and minerals. On the palate, I found lean textures with a mix of zesty acidity, tart red fruits, savory minerals and spice. The finish was medium in length, resonating on dried black cherry with inner dried floral tones.

    (LE COSTE G. Rinaldi BAROLO) Barolo Dear Friends, A few special magnums of what can only be construed as traditional trophy wine... All were just confirmed and I think they speak for themselves - all are VERY RARE in this format. This parcel is directly from the source with perfect provenance. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for being a traditional stronghold in the face of modernism: 2000 G. Rinaldi Barolo Brunate Le Coste 1.5lt (AG92) I also have a few of these... 2003 G. Rinaldi Barolo Brunate Le Coste 1.5lt This is one of the finest wines of the 2003 vintage - it drinks more like a cross between 1989 and 2001): ...and many of you asked for the 1995 after the Rinaldi vertical offer last week, here you go...in magnum: 1995 G. Rinaldi Barolo Brunate Le Coste 1.5lt EXTREMELY LIMITED Thank you, Jon Rimmerman Garagiste Seattle, WA Italy5466 Italy5467 Italy5468
