94 points Monica Larner (Wine Advocate): "The Graci 2022 Etna Bianco Muganazzi has a different character altogether. Instead of the orchard fruit that we saw in the Arcurìa, the Muganazzi shows pithy white citrus, pomelo fruit and lots of crushed stone and mineral. The defining feature of the wine is those volcanic nuances that should turn toward hydrocarbons as the wine continues its bottle evolution. Drink 2025-2036 (Jun 2025)"
94 points Kerin O'Keefe: "Made with 100% Carricante grown in the Muganazzi contrada, this beautiful white shows tension, energy and elegant restraint. It opens with subtle aromas of hay, Spanish broom, white orchard fruit and wet stone. On the savory, linear palate, salty mineral notes accent pear, yellow apple, unsweetened lemon drop and lychee. Bright acidity keeps it balanced and energized. Drink or hold for more complexity. (Jul 2024)"
93 points James Suckling: "Lemongrass, dried camomile tea leaves, and a hint of bitter almond and wet hay characters. Medium-bodied with savory and flinty undertones on the palate. Subtly smoky finish at the end. Minerally in the finish. Pure carricante. Better in a year or two, but already attractive. Drink or hold. (Sep 2023)"
92 points Wine Spectator: "[$85 list] Allow this vibrant white to open in the glass and reveal its compact mesh of golden apple, pear, almond blossom, fresh straw and lemon wax aromas and flavors. Racy on the finish, with a minerally streak of stone, ash and salt notes. Best from 2027 through 2037. 410 cases made, 56 cases imported. (Jul 2025)"
91 points James Button (Decanter): "From the estate's youngest vines, located in contrada Muganazzi in Passopisciaro, this 2022 is zesty and quite savoury, with a woody character to the lemon peel and pineapple fruit, and ending with a very salty finish. Only the third vintage, there seems to be lots of potential here as the vines get older. Drinking window 2024-2030 (Sep 2024)"
