94 points/'Editors' Choice,' Kerin O'Keefe (Wine Enthusiast): "[$20/750ml list] This lovely sparkler never disappoints. It's fragrant, with delicate scents of white spring flowers and white stone fruits while the dry, refreshing palate offers ripe pear, apple and white peach alongside a hint of fennel seed. An elegant perlage and fresh acidity provide the backdrop. Alcohol 11%. (Nov 2021)"
93 points Falstaff Guide: "Bright silver, green hints and a persistent mousse. On the nose, fresh apple and pear, subtle elderflower hints and then peach and acacia flowers. On the palate, citrus fruit, well integrated mousse and juicy. A very pleasant and easy drinking style. (Apr 2023)"
91 points Eric Guido (Vinous): "The NV Prosecco Superiore Rustico wafts up with a remarkably fresh mix of sweet florals, melon and smoke. It washes across the palate with an elegant wave of ripe orchard fruits and sweet spices; a twang of sour citrus adds contrast. There's a slightly tropical feel to the finale, yet savory as well. The Rustico keeps the mouth watering, and hints of candied almonds slowly fade. Anyone looking to take their prosecco game to the next level without breaking the bank, look no further. Drink: 2022-2025. (Dec 2022)"
91 points James Suckling: "A good style, gently turbid and highly textural. Alpine herb, almond meal and orchard fruit accents meander along a bead, more terse and direct than the norm, as if reaching for greener pastures somewhere higher up. The finish, dry and quinine bitter, evincing a touch of authority in the context of the style. Drink now. (Apr 2023)"
