La Gelsomina was born on the edge of the Santa Venera stream where Piedimonte Etneo gives way to the County of Mascali, in the small hamlet of Presa located on Etna. From the clayey and lava soil, from the "Gghiara" as the Etna people pronounce it, there are 15 hectares of vineyards, olive groves and orchards that take on the shape of an amphitheater. Here the autochthonous varieties of the volcano Nerello Mascalese, Nerello Cappuccio, Carricante and Catarratto are grown, as well as Moscato dell'Etna. Thanks to careful vinification, quality wines with a strong character are obtained, capable of surprising for their finesse and delicacy.
