In a small saucepan, place 125g of sugar, cornflour and gelatin and mix well. Add orange juice and water slowly, mixing well so there are no lumps. Cook and stir over medium heat until it bubbles.
Remove from heat and chill until mixture becomes syrupy. Meanwhile, mix nectarine slices with remaining tablespoon of sugar and marsala and allow to marinate until the syrup has thickened.
Combine syrup with nectarine mixture, mix well and cover, and chill until it has almost set. Spoon the mixture into cooked pie shell, cover with cling film and chill until set.
