Vinous: 95 Points

Remarkably pretty the 2022 Etna Rosso San Lorenzo wafts up with an array of dried flowers cloves and lavender. Lifted and finessed this opens with a hint of candied orange that enlivens its core of tart wild berries. Brisk acidity keeps the experience fresh throughout. Staining the palate in concentration the San Lorenzo tapers off gently tannic and crunchy in feel leaving gorgeous floral perfumes to linger on. This is the understated darling of the Terre Nere portfolio and I expect that cellaring will bring even more complexity. (Drink between 2026-2034)

Kerin O'Keefe: 95 Points

Spicy and structured, the Tenuta delle Terre Nere 2022 San Lorenzo is a stunning wine, starting with its enticing aromas of Mediterranean scrub, lavender, eucalyptus, wild berry and spice. Elegant and structured, the linear palate delivers ripe raspberry, juniper berry, liquor-soaked cherries, star anise and crushed mint alongside close-grained tannins. Hailing from one of the coolest microclimates on the volcano, it has vibrancy and tension while a salty mineral note lingers on the finish. What a beautiful wine. Drink 2026–2034.
