- Score: 89 Vintage 2022 Vinous Media The 2022 Bianco Terre Siciliane shows crushed rocks, citrus zest and white flowers. It opens with a pleasant inner sweetness giving way to crisp apple and melon tones. Candied lime and mineral notes slowly fade as the 2022 finishes with a tropical flourish.

- Score: 88 Vintage 2022 Wine Enthusiast The nose is delicate and almost wistful, as the sweetness of vanilla and white flowers drift through more bracing aromas of salt and lemon. The citrus, floral theme continues onto the palate, for a sweet but not cloying wine. Shelf Talker Full Page Review
- Score: 89 Vintage 2021 Wine Enthusiast On the nose, this is sunny and warm with citrus blossoms and paving stones. The stony, lemon-lime palate is at turns rich and fresh, with spices and herbs and a rising heat at the back. Shelf Talker Full Page Review
- Score: 88 Vintage 2021 Vinous Media The 2021 Bianco Terre Siciliane opens with a fresh burst of minerals and sweet smoke contrasting with candied lime. Cooling and crip, this washes easily across the palate as juicy acidity motivates its tart orchard fruits. It finishes perfumed and refreshing, leaving a slightly crunchy feel through the medium-length finale. Shelf Talker Full Page Review
- Score: 86 Vintage 2020 Vinous Media The 2020 Bianco is a blend of Inzolia, Cattaratto and Grillo, featuring a pleasant bouquet filled with spicy florals, green citrus and sour melon. It’s soft in texture with a sweet display of ripe orchard fruit and cooling herbal notes, and closes to notes of candied citrus and ginger. Shelf Talker Full Page Review
- Score: 88 Vintage 2018 Wine Enthusiast Aromas of yellow peach, tropical fruit, Mediterranean scrub and sea breeze lift out of the glass. On the bright palate, tangy saline accompanies apricot, yellow apple, citrus and a savory hint of fennel. KERIN O’KEEFE Shelf Talker Full Page Review
