About Us - Menicucci Vini

About Us

Menicucci is carved out of an Italian family tradition, instilled with passion and dedication. Established in 1970, Antonio Menicucci planted his first grapes in Ortona, Italy. Three generations later the Menicucci legacy lives on. Antonio’s desire and passion to strengthen family traditions encouraged his son Luigi and grandson Emmanuele to continue producing wines with a keen attention to detail. In such a way, Antonio witnessed the growth of our family farm as we constantly search for quality in an effort to produce exclusive wines in each of the respective territories in which we operate. Along with our love and passion for making good wines, Menicucci is committed to delivering superior quality and unforgettable memories. Our unique and continuous innovation techniques have inspired us to become amongst the industry’s most admired emerging Italian wine brands.

MISSION
Our commitment to offer superior quality wines is driven by our desire to accommodate unforgettable memories for wine lovers from around the world. Satisfying every palate, Menicucci is focused on producing a wide range of still and sparkling wines – wines with a strong aromatic component to less complex classic whites and reds.
To accommodate our growing customer and partner base, Menicucci Vini expanded into Campania, Puglia, Sicily and Tuscany, establishing itself as an emerging Italian wine producer.

OUR VALUES
Menicucci is committed to constant growth in creativity, production and innovation. Our business model is based on transparency, integrity and clear distinctions in all aspects of our trade.

CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT
Improvement is one of the core values underlying our development model. As an essential part of our journey, we are focused on continuing to offer superior quality wines to all our customers and partners.

Alzavola Artist Fabio Di Lizio

Fabio Di Lizio was born in Ortona, Italy in 1976 and is currently teaching Graphics and Engraving Techniques at Accademia Belle Arti L’Aquila. He has showcased his work across numerous exhibitions and cultural events, and has also participated in international competitions and workshops.

A nature’s gift: “Alzavola” is a green and blue duck, representing the colors of life. Alzavola wine is a true reflection of organic wine that interprets life and blends in perfectly with that of our home, the Earth.

Fabio’s artistic style was easy to combine with Alzavola. In his artwork, Fabio uses the earth and house symbols repetitively. To fully adhere to our brand’s distinctiveness, Fabio used his unique artistic style along with our organic theme to represent our organic red and white wines. To combine nature with wine, Fabio shows Alzavola quietly lingering on top of a wine glass.

Ginesia Artist Lorenzo Pisani

Lorenzo Pisani was born in Pescara, Italy in 1987. He is a freelancer artist, who is especially passionate about digital art. Lorenzo uses his emotions and thoughts to guide his art work. His artwork is based on his mood at a current moment, that can easily be described in the lines and colors he chooses.

Ginesia is the creation of the world, it is the origin. Lorenzo describes Ginesia in his painting by having many different colors ‘spiral’ together to create the perfect circle, our world.

The several colors represent the different eras. In our four Ginesia wine labels, each label describes the origin in a particular way. Montepulciano reminds us of the flowers and the beauty of things. Cerasuolo remind us of the sun and our ‘light days’ on earth. Passerina reminds us of the sky and its birds as well as the sea and the great creatures of the sea. Pecorino reminds us of the nature, our green earth as well as all the living creatures on our land.

M Spumante Artist Rama Disuky

Rama Disuky, a muralist and painter,  born in Cairo, Egypt in 1991.Her signature characters function as a metaphor for her experiences and struggles in life. There is an element of the unexpected in the close examination of her paintings; as a viewer approaches what appears to be a surrealism painting, the surface dissolves into an abstract composition of aggressive brushstrokes.

Rama used her figurative and surreal style to convey a message about Adam and Eve, united together in peace, love and respect by using the letter M. A creative method to show the love and respect connection between both genders together. The vibrant colors used, are a way to manifest positivity and peace. As you look closely you’ll find an integration of circles, as a sign to describe the home feeling.
