The 2019 Barolo Perno is a gorgeous, delicate wine. Aromatic and light on its feet, with lovely complexity, the 2019 is a total delight. Orange peel, dried herbs, mint, spice, sage and kirsch are all finely cut in this haunting, ethereal Barolo. The acid profile and tannins are those of a Barolo that needs at least a few years in bottle to be at its finest. - By Antonio Galloni on January 2025
