    Ruby garnet colour, fine violet notes and lots of spices on the nose. Dense and compact with taut tannins and sweet fruit flavours. Given time, this already very elegant red (age of the vines: 100 years, production: 4,000 bottles) is at the beginning of a long, promising development. SUPERIORE.DE

    "Elegant, sparkling, medium ruby red with garnet reflections. On the nose, a multi-faceted bouquet of raspberries, orange peel and pomegranate, delicately combined with red rose petals and a hint of thyme. Very delicate and inviting on the palate, with a harmonious balance between pleasant freshness and fine-grained tannins, juicy and mineral on the long final." Falstaff

    "Contrada Guardiola lies at around 800 metres just down the road from Rampante, and it gives a rounder, fuller, more generous expression of Nerello Mascalese. Fragrant lavender and herb aromas with red berry notes introduce a tightly tannic palate with underlying forest berries and creamy notes. Supporting acidity balances the weight of the tannins and extends the long, fresh finish." Decanter

    "Earthy strawberries, dried flowers and soft spices on the nose. On the palate the wine is crunchy, with a medium body and crisp acidity. The tight, firm tannins are still youthful in the finish. Drinkable now, but will improve in complexity with aging." James Suckling

    "Smoky and ashy in the glass, the 2022 Etna Rosso Contrada Guardiola opens with a burst of ashen stones and grilled herbs, evolving into crushed black cherries and lifted by hints of menthol. It sweeps across the palate with textures of pure silk as a polished wave of red and black fruits swirls around a core of lively acidity. Its structure comes through on the finish as a staining of primary concentration adds a firm grip. Saline minerals linger under an air of inner florals. This is a wine that contrasts stunning depth with an energetic feel." Vinous
