James Suckling, 92 Points
"Ignore the palate color, this is a classic example of the nerello mascalese grape from Etna, with the dry elegance and vitality we associate with these strikingly original wines. Complex red-cherry, redcurrant and dried orange-zest character. Crisp finish with lemon-zest freshness. Drink or hold."
Wine Advocate, 90 Points
"Here's a fruit-forward blend of 90% Nerello Mascalese and 10% Nerello Cappuccio (all farmed organically from the estate's 10-hectare vineyard perched at 450 to 550 meters above sea level). The Terra Costantino 2019 Etna Rosso de Aetna (with 25,000 bottles released) is easy in presentation and intensity. This is the estate's entry-level red, and you get good value here. Berry and cherry flavors add some sweetness and softness to the wine, and the 2019 vintage shows good richness in terms of fiber and texture (for an Etna red that is always lean-bodied in comparison to reds from the rest of Sicily)."
