- Score: 94 Vintage 2020 Vinous Media The 2020 Barolo Terlo Vigna Costa Grimaldi marries fruit depth and structure. It is the most classically austere of these wines in feel, even if it saw a bit more new oak than the other Barolos. Dark blue fruit, spice, leather, licorice, gravel and menthol build in an explosive, deep Barolo that will require some cellaring. Aging took place half in tonneaux and half in cask.

- Score: 94 Vintage 2020 James Suckling This is more vibrant and fruit-forward offering notes of dark cherries, wild berries, spices and dried flowers. Hints of bark, too. Medium-bodied. Firm but refined and polished with a juicy center palate that leads to a linear, lightly chewy finish. Try after 2027. Shelf Talker Full Page Review
- Score: 93 Vintage 2020 Wine Spectator Dripping with luscious black cherry and blackberry fruit, this red is supple and round. Features a floral component that leans more toward violet than rose, with hints of underbrush and menthol. Shows fine balance and length. Best from 2026 through 2042. Shelf Talker Full Page Review
- Score: 93 Vintage 2020 Wine Advocate The Poderi Luigi Einaudi 2020 Barolo Terlo Vigna Costa Grimaldi has a floral note of sweet lady's perfume, raspberry macaron and flowering geranium all followed by a metallic or flinty end note. The wine offers medium-bodied texture and strong tannins that border on astringent. Only 6,426 bottles were made. Shelf Talker Full Page Review
- Score: 90 Vintage 2020 Wine Enthusiast This incense-driven Barolo from Terlo is an aromatic gem, with lifted notes of sandalwood, clove, and dried roses on the nose, accompanied by subtle dried cherry aromas. The palate is mouth-filling, with cooked sour cherry and raspberry flavors, balanced by a savory finish and an appealing tension that holds the wine together.

- Score: 91 Vintage 2019 Wine Enthusiast Aromas of roasted cherries, burnt sage and dried roses lift from the glass of this classy Barolo. The well-balanced palate opens to sour red fruit, medicinal herbs and rosewood finishing with superfine tannins that seem soft but sneak up on you, giving the wine more power on the bright finish. Drink 2025–2040. Shelf Talker Full Page Review
