Tenute Orestiadi

What Tenute Orestiadi does

Tenute Orestiadi (legal entity Orestiadi s.r.l.) is a privately held Sicilian wine producer founded in 2008 and headquartered in Gibellina, in the Belice Valley of western Sicily. The company produces DOC- and IGT-certified still wines (whites, reds, rosés, blends, and single-varietals) plus sparkling wines made by both Metodo Classico and Metodo Martinotti methods, from indigenous Sicilian grape varieties including Nero d'Avola, Catarratto, Grillo, Carricante, and Nerello Mascalese. Grapes are sourced across Sicily, from the Valle del Belìce to the volcanic slopes of Mount Etna, where the company also operates the 15-hectare La Gelsomina estate (vineyards, olive groves, and orchards). The portfolio is anchored by two flagship reserve blends — Rosso di Ludovico (Nero d'Avola / Cabernet Sauvignon) and Bianco di Ludovico (Catarratto / Chardonnay) — named after Ludovico Corrao, the civic leader who rebuilt Gibellina through contemporary art after the 1968 Belice earthquake. The La Gelsomina estate supports the Etna DOC and Metodo Classico sparkling lines (Petramater from Carricante, La Gelsomina Rosé).

The business model combines three revenue streams: (1) bottled wine sales through a proprietary e-commerce storefront (tenuteorestiadi.it) and an external partner platform (Piùvino.it by Pro.di.ve s.r.l.); (2) paid on-premise wine experiences at the Gibellina cantina and the La Gelsomina estate on Etna — guided tastings, vineyard tours, food pairings (e.g., the "Un Nuovo Punto di Vista" 6-wine tasting at €40/person, "Contaminazioni Vulcaniche," "Sapori Etnei," "Burri Wine Tasting," "Consagra Wine Tasting"), plus special events including a hot-air balloon experience at the Archaeological Park of Selinunte via partner GSM Aeropanorami; and (3) B2B/ Ho.Re.Ca. sales developed through international wine fairs (Vinitaly, ProWein, Merano Wine Festival, Mundus Vini, Decanter World Wine Awards, Concours Mondial de Bruxelles) and a trade-agency partnership with ICE for the Canadian market. Primary customers are individual wine enthusiasts and collectors in Italy and Canada; the secondary segment is the Italian hospitality trade. Distribution is direct-to-consumer-led with no disclosed wholesale infrastructure outside Italy and Canada.
