95 points James Suckling: "A very pretty, perfumed, young Etna rosso with plenty of fresh flowers, focus and finesse. Medium-bodied, it has fine tannins and a long, bright finish. Best ever? Drink now or hold. (Jul 2024)"
92 points Kerin O'Keefe: "Slate mineral, Mediterranean scrub, juniper berry and scorched earth aromas come to the forefront. Smooth and savory, the bright palate offers succulent cherry, wild strawberry and star anise before closing on notes of bitter almond and saline. Polished tannins offer lithe support. Drink through 2028. (Sep 2024)"
91 points Eric Guido (Vinous): "The 2022 Etna Rosso Ghiaia Nera is darkly floral and surprisingly rich. Autumnal spices and dusty rose complement cherry sauce and hints of mint on the nose. Cool and round, yet juicy to the core, it sweeps across the palate with ripe red and blue fruits as an air of lavender forms. This maintains energy even as it tapers off staining and gently tannic, leaving a resonance of licorice to fade slowly. Drink 2025-2029 (May 2025)"
