95 points Eric Guido (Vinous): "The 2020 Rosso MunJebel PA wafts up with a sweet-and-sour bouquet as spiced orange and tropical citrus combine with masses of black raspberry and a dusting of violet candies. This is vividly fruit-focused, with wild acidity that excites the palate as crunchy woodland berry fruits cascade beneath an air of blue- and purple-toned inner florals. It closes with a coating of mouthwatering primary concentration and a sensation of liquid stone, all contrasted by crisp minerality. The Porcaria is built on power yet elegant to the extreme. Drink: 2026-2038. (Jun 2024)"

94 points James Suckling: "So much purity of orange peel and orange blossom here with watermelon and crushed raspberries. Full-bodied with fine tannins and a fresh acidity and brightness. Linear and vertical at the same time. It has crunchy acidity and firm, fine tannins. Drink after 2024. (8/4/23)"

"Munjebel PA" by Frank Cornelissen is an Etna red from Nerello Mascalese able to combine in one glass the richness with the elegance. It comes from old alberelli vines in Porcaria Cru and it is distinguished by dark berries, ripe currants and rose accents, surrounded by mild oxidation tones. On the palate is intense and expressive with sharp acidity and long lasting finish.
