Giovanni Canonica Barolo Paiagallo 2016

Graceful and refined, with bright red fruit, dried flowers and citrus peel flowing across a medium-bodied frame. The 15.5% alcohol stays well-integrated, supporting rather than overwhelming the wine's delicate profile. Mint and baking spice add complexity on the finish. Whether this builds more substance with age is unclear, but it's drinking beautifully now for those who appreciate finesse.
