LA GELSOMINA

In the ‘80s, Mr. Alfio Turrisi, an engineer originally from Presa, decided to buy 15 hectares of land, the name of the estate will be La Gelsomina, cultivating vineyards, fruit, and olive trees, within a unique theatre-shaped area. La Gelsomina becomes an important part of the Turrisi family.

From then onwards, happy moments were shared in this beautiful place, and we started to produce wines. In 2018, Engineer Turrisi decided to entrust the management of La Gelsomina to a company with which he shares values and vision: Tenute Orestiadi. From then onwards, a close collaboration between the two companies began.

Walking through the sinuous curves of Etna, with a look to the summit, we arrive in a place protected from the rest of the world. A place where the wind leaves a thin lava powder that enriches the soil, a place where the sun brings the bunches of Nerello Mascalese, Nerello Cappuccio, Carricante, Catarratto and Moscato dell'Etna to perfect ripeness. This allows the production of La Gelsomina Extreme wine line:
