93 points James Suckling: "A pretty nose of roses, strawberries and garden herbs. Full-bodied with fine tannins and very precise intensity. Fruity. There’s a steely undertone here. Lovely. Drink or hold. (9/6/22)"
92 points Eric Guido (Vinous): "The 2020 is the total package when it comes to “entry-level” Etna Rosso. Its bouquet is remarkably pretty, yet also deep and vibrant, with masses of crushed red berries and rose tones excited by a minty freshness. The textures are silky and pliant, matched by medium-bodied weight, delivering a bright mix of ripe strawberries and sweet spices. All the while, a core of juicy acidity maintains marvelous freshness, even as a subtle coating of grippy tannins linger through the well-framed finale. Bravo, Alberto Graci. Drink: 2022-2026. (Jun 2022)"
92 points Decanter: "The estate red is fermented and aged in a combination of cement tank and large oak vats. There's a long period of skin contact - about 30 days - and no temperature control during fermentation. Traditional on paper, it's also traditional in the glass with its closed nose and austere palate. It has big structure but also plenty of freshness to balance, with some vibrant cherry, raspberry and black cherry fruits reined in my mineral tension. The finish is long and pure. Drinking Window: 2023-2036. (Apr 2022)"
91 points Monica Larner (Wine Advocate): "The entry-level 2020 Etna Rosso opens to a lean-bodied appearance with a dark ruby shine. This vintage presents a very expressive bouquet with redcurrant, sour cherry, blue flower and volcanic ash. This is a terrific introduction to the wines of Sicily's Mount Etna from one of the most talented winemakers on the volcano, Alberto Graci. Drink 2023-2027 (Jun 2023)."
