Tenute Mannino
On the slopes of Etna, in the heart of the Catania plain, stands Tenuta del Gelso, a place where tradition meets vision, and where wine tells a centuries-old story. Since the early 1800s, this manor house has been much more than a farm: a true laboratory of winemaking innovation, guided by the foresight of Baron Franz Mannino, who brought the family wines to Europe and North America, obtaining recognition at prestigious universal exhibitions.
During the grape harvest, the ancient palmento – one of the oldest in the area – came to life in a choral celebration that involved the entire community: children, friends, neighbors. It was an explosion of scents, lights and colors that celebrated the cycle of nature and the indissoluble bond with the land.
Today, Giorgio Mannino, the sixth generation of a family that has managed to combine ancient values and modern entrepreneurial spirit, is collecting the legacy of this noble history. Following the impetus given by his father Giuseppe, a central figure in the relaunch of the Etna DOC denomination, the estate is now a dynamic, solid and forward-looking agricultural and winemaking reality, while remaining firmly anchored to its historical identity.
The wines of Tenute Mannino di Plachi are born from a unique terroir, sculpted by the force of the volcano, an ideal Mediterranean climate and knowledge handed down with respect and innovation. 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, testifying to the patronage spirit of the family.
Vino45 is proud to bring Tenute Mannino wines to the tables of its customers, an authentic expression of a noble, generous and contemporary Etna, where every glass is a journey through time and passion.

THE COMPANY
The manor estate, Tenuta del Gelso, has been an extraordinary and innovative winemaking laboratory since the early 19th century. From here, from the Catania plain, Baron Franz Mannino made his wine known in Europe and North America, also obtaining prestigious awards at various universal exhibitions. During the grape harvest, the palmento, one of the oldest in the area, was the site of a real family celebration in which all the inhabitants of the House took part: from joyful children to friends and neighbors who flocked to Tenuta del Gelso to immerse themselves in a riot of smells, lights and colors until late at night. Giuseppe Mannino has given new life to the family business and to the Etna Doc denomination, building an active and dynamic business reality. Now in its sixth generation, his son Giorgio is now leading a solid and established winemaking and agricultural business reality. A company that is the guardian of ancient traditions, but also capable of looking to the future and ahead of its time. The living rooms of the Villa still echo the conversations held by its inhabitants with Giovanni Verga or Ettore Majorana, tangible evidence of the reputation of Tenute Mannino as a family of patrons.
