Etna Rosso by Tenute Mannino is a classic blend of Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio characterized by the typical volcanic minerality. Grapes harvested from 60-120 year old vines located on the slopes of the volcano in Contrada Bragaseggi on the northern side of Etna, at an altitude of 600 m.a.s.l.. It ages 12 months in large French oak barrels. It is a wine with a bright ruby red color, an intense aroma with pleasant floral, pomegranate and graphite hints. Elegant tannins and a good juice release all the power and minerality of the volcanic terroir. It pairs well with red meats and game, important first courses and mature cheeses.

Tenute Mannino
At the foot of Mount Etna, in the heart of the Catania Plain, lies the Tenuta del Gelso, a place where tradition meets vision, and where wine tells a centuries-old story. Since the early years of the 19th century, this manor house has been much more than a farm: it has been a true laboratory of winemaking innovation, led by the foresight of Baron Franz Mannino, who brought the family wines to Europe and North America, receiving accolades at prestigious world exhibitions.
During the grape harvest, the ancient wine cellar – one of the oldest in the area – came alive in a choral celebration that involved the entire community: children, friends, neighbors. It was an explosion of aromas, lights, and colors that celebrated the cycle of nature and the unbreakable bond with the land.
Today, carrying on the legacy of this noble story is Giorgio Mannino, the sixth generation of a family that has managed to combine ancient values with a modern entrepreneurial spirit. Following the impetus given by his father Giuseppe, a central figure in the revival of the Etna DOC denomination, the estate is now a dynamic, solid agricultural and winemaking reality, projected towards the future while remaining firmly anchored to its historical identity.
The wines of the Tenute Mannino of Plachi are born from a unique terroir, sculpted by the power of the volcano, an ideal Mediterranean climate, and a knowledge passed down with respect and innovation. The Tenuta del Gelso is not just a place of production: it is a crossroads of culture and history, whose salons have hosted figures of the caliber of Giovanni Verga and Ettore Majorana, witnessing the family’s patronage spirit.
Vino45 is proud to bring to its customers' tables the wines signed by Tenute Mannino, an authentic expression of a noble, generous, and contemporary Etna, where every glass is a journey through time and passion.
