93 points James Suckling: "Pretty sweet berries and hints of salted caramel with some orange peel on the nose follow through to a medium body with a solid core of fruit and firm and racy tannins. I like the tension and energy to this. Better after 2024 but already impressive. (8/4/23)"
93 points Raffaele Vecchione (Winescritic.com): "Energy to sell is told on the nose with notes of mixed red flowers, mandarin peel, wild thyme, wet earth, cloves and sandalwood. Incense and nutmeg describe the secondary scene of excellent workmanship. Medium body, biting tannins of rustic character and a powerful and essential finish of pleasant drinkability. Drink now. (Jul 2023)"
92 points Eric Guido (Vinous): "[$65 list] Deeply satisfying, the 2021 Etna Rosso San Nicolo' entices with a rich blend of dried strawberries and cherries, complimented by a twist of exotic citrus and cinnamon spice. This is soft and round with juicy acidity and ripe red and blue fruits that swirl throughout. It finishes youthfully tense, leaving the cheeks puckered as a coating of fine tannin lingers and rosy inner florals fade. Give the 2021 another year or two to come fully into focus. Drink: 2026-2032. (Jun 2024)"
