Score 96/100 · Drink 2029-2044, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Jan 2023
The 2019 Barolo Paiagallo is a gorgeous wine from Giovanni Canonica. Kirsch, orange peel, cinnamon, cedar and new leather take on an exotic quality in a deep Barolo that marries a super-ripe profile with classic structure. The 2019 is a bit wild. Candied fruit lends a racy quality, but the tannins are decidedly forbidding. With Canonica every bottle is an adventure. For readers willing to take the ride, the 2019 has a ton to offer.
