WA 92 (6/2025): The Girolamo Russo 2024 Etna Bianca Nerina is 85% Carricante and 15% other local grapes with a grassy side and aromas of the wild chamomile flower that grows on the slopes of Etna. The wine is balanced and not too fresh in this warm vintage but with a nice sense of easy-drinking fruit and accessibility.
VM 90 (5/2025): The 2024 Etna Bianco Nerina is spicy to the core with shavings of lemon complemented by rosemary and ginger. It's soothingly round and pliant with sweet green melon and herbal tones carried across a stream of fresh acidity. This leaves the palate completely refreshed, tapering off clean and crisp while leaving pretty inner florals to fade slowly on the finish. (Drink between 2025-2028). Eric Guido. |

| WA 92 (4/2025): The Girolamo Russo 2022 Etna Rosso 'a Rina is a 40,000-bottle blend of 80% Nerello Mascalese and 20% Nerello Cappuccio. The winemaking approach consists of a simple formula that sees equal parts oak, cement and stainless steel. Fruit comes from across several sites, including Contrade Feudo, San Lorenzo and Calderara Sottana, which are fermented separately. It shows a mid-weight appearance and dark ruby highlights. The bouquet offers an interesting mix of dried berry, star anise, pressed rose and a savory side with licorice and barbecue spice. The effect is quite open, immediate and charming, fundamentally. |

VM 94.5 (5/2025): The 2022 Etna Rosso Calderara Sottana is dusty, with a beguiling blend of rose petals and geraniums giving way to cloves and woodland berries. Cool-toned and pliant, this maintains its floral character throughout while adding hints of sour citrus that add primary depths. Calderara Sottana minerality and gripping tannins come through on the finish as the 2022 leaves the senses saturated, while a resonance of brown spice lingers on. Have patience with this beastly effort—it may be even better with time. (Drink between 2027-2034). Eric Guido.
WA 94 (4/2025): The Girolamo Russo 2022 Etna Rosso Calderara Sottana is 98% Nerello Mascalese and 2% Nerello Cappuccio from 90-year-old plants at a moderate 500 meters in elevation. The wine reveals a dark ruby color with plenty of shine. Mineral nuances are laced throughout its elegantly lean-bodied finish. You also recognize wild cherry, redcurrant and a spicy hint of clove. It ends on a finely polished note that adds to an enduring sense of length. |

| WA 94 (6/2023): The 2020 Etna Rosso Feudo is slightly lighter in appearance, but really only by a hair, compared to some of the other contrada wines by Giuseppe Russo this year. It also shows elegantly contained aromas of dark rose, orange peel, candied almond and wild currant. Like past vintages of Feudo, this wine makes good on a promise of elegance and extreme silkiness. |

WA 95 (6/2023): The 2021 Etna Rosso Feudo is a bit more accessible overall, but I love the way the bouquet and the mouthfeel play out in this vintage. The wine offers precision and clean linearity. Fruit comes from 70-year-old vines, and the aromas are nuanced and delicate with wild fruit, rose and crushed flint. The finish is extremely smooth and silky with melting tannins.
VM 95 (6/2024): The 2021 Etna Rosso Feudo is dark and brooding in the glass, slowly unfurling with an enticing mix of dried black cherries, incense, clove and crushed ashen stones. This sweeps across the palate with velvety textures, quickly firming up as masses of black raspberry and salty minerals saturate. Edgy tannins linger along with an enlivening bump of vibrant acidity, keeping the mouth watering despite the 2021's youthfully structured state. The balance of power and elegance here is utterly spellbinding. (Drink between 2026-2034). Eric Guido.
JD 93 (10/2025): The 2021 Etna Rosso Feudo is a deep ruby hue and is inviting with raspberry liqueur, fresh sage, wildflowers, and crushed stones. Sourced from Feudo, Caldera Sottana, and San Lorenzo, this wine is medium-bodied and fleshy on the palate, featuring ripe tannins, refreshing acidity, and a long finish. It's a fantastic wine to drink now or over the next 10-12 years. (Drink between 2025-2037). Audrey Frick. |

| VM 94.5 (9/2023): The 2019 Etna Rosso Feudo d'Mezzo is intense, nearly balsamic in the glass, smoldering up with a wave of medicinal cherry and sweet herbs lifted by hints of camphor. This is pure seduction on the palate, silky and refined with brisk acidity and depths of ripe raspberry underscored by saline minerals. It finishes structured and full of youthful tension yet perfumed and spicy, leaving inner florals and a cranberry crunch. Patience will be required. (Drink between 2025-2034). Eric Guido. |

WA 94 (4/2025): The Girolamo Russo 2022 Etna Rosso Feudo di Mezzo is 97% Nerello Mascalese and 3% Nerello Cappuccio from 100-year-old vines planted on powdery volcanic sand at 450 meters in elevation. This is one of the estate's best wines that enjoys unique consistency and proven cellar aging potential. This 3,000-bottle release shows pretty elegance with blue flowers, redcurrant and glossy sensations of ash. This mid-weight wine ends with fine tannins and a touch of saltiness.
VM 94 (5/2025): The 2022 Etna Rosso Feudo di Mezzo is darkly floral and rich in the glass with dark notes of black cherry, chestnut, clove and sage complicated by hints of crushed stone. It impresses further with its supple character and depths of ripe wild berry fruit, all neatly offset by a tinge of saline minerality. So giving yet potent and intense, the 2022 tapers off with suave tannins and a rosy resonance that lingers on. The Feudo di Mezzo delivers a massive amount of pleasure. (Drink between 2025-2032). Eric Guido. |

| WA 96+ (6/2023): The Girolamo Russo 2021 Etna Rosso San Lorenzo is a very exciting wine with so much energy and verve. It opens to lean-bodied concentration with a brilliant ruby shine. The wine shows a long array of wild fruit and tiny berry aromas backed by crushed white pepper and crushed stone. San Lorenzo is one of the most impressive interpretations of Etna. I highly recommend you try and cellar this wine. |

WA 95 (4/2025): One of the best wines from the volcano is this always overachieving blend of 97% Nerello Mascalese and 3% Nerello Cappuccio. The Girolamo Russo 2022 Etna Rosso San Lorenzo draws its fruit from 80-year-old vines at an ideal (or I should say ideal for Etna) 780 meters in elevation. The cooling breezes and strong luminosity of these elevations help to contribute to the freshness of the wine and its beautifully intense aromas. There is wild cherry, violet and Sicilian blood orange. Maceration times extend to 18 days, and the wine ages in used barrique for 18 months. The wine's attractive dark ruby shine leads to a long-lasting and very polished mouthfeel.
VM 95 (5/2025): The 2022 Etna Rosso San Lorenzo is a spice box, with depths of cloves, cinnamon sticks, orange shavings, incense and sweet smoke forming its irresistible bouquet. This is elegant in style with velvety textures, yet it has an energetic persona. Red and blue fruits wash across the palate, leaving a sensation of liquid stone in their wake. Violet and lavender tones linger long through the finish as fine-grained tannins flex and hints of licorice slowly fade. The balance here is unreal, making the 2022 the most complete of Girolamo Russo's current releases. (Drink between 2026-2034). Eric Guido. |

| VM 93+ (6/2022): While incredibly complex, the 2019 Etna Rosso San Lorenzo Piano delle Colombe is also amazingly finessed, pulling me close with minty herbs and rose tones, only to find depths of pomegranate, black cherries and Indian spice. This is seamlessly silky and refined, built on energy, yet with an underlying structural tension that builds over time, as primary fruits and minerals saturate, and grippy tannins slowly take hold. Throughout it all, nervous acidity keeps the mouth watering and refreshed, as the 2019 finishes youthfully tannic yet long and perfumed. Today, the Piano delle Colombe is enjoyable in its potential, as the balance here really tempts the imagination. Eric Guido |

| WA 96 (6/2023): The Girolamo Russo 2020 Etna Rosso San Lorenzo Piano delle Colombe is more open-knit compared to the 2019 vintage (I had the opportunity to taste the two side by side). This is a lovely wine with fine fiber and delicate fruit notes of wild berry, crushed stone and white pepper. The 2019 vintage has a certain magic that does not completely manifest here (in this hot vintage). However, the wine shows the supreme elegance of Etna. |
