Montenero has started on the slopes of Etna at 750 meters above sea level by the Bertino family who, being owners of a medium-small breeding of Nerello Mascalese, decided to take the path of winemakers, something quite appreciated by the eldest son, a person who has been following the activity for over a year. Bertino Francesco (grandfather of the present heir) began in 1955 by buying this vineyard for work purposes, he worked on it for almost 5 years so as to bring the vineyard into production and start marketing the product. The idea was quite good and profitable but given the little interest in regularizing the company, the company was never activated, which fortunately changed with the arrival of the son Bertino Vincenzo who, dedicating himself to the fact, managed to regularize the thing and start producing in a fiscal and systematic way, taking back vineyards and regularizing products and reaching various brands over the years so as to further enhance the work done over the years.
