The Vitigni Irpini project was born from the idea of Michele Bello and his wife Antonella Coppola, he has been passionate about wines since 2007 and is captured by this fantastic world thanks to a dear friend Vittorino. Michele together with his "brotherly" friend begins to taste and curiosity is born in him. Thus begins Michele's journey as he begins to discover territories, visit cellars and taste "new" wines. Michele, as was done with him, manages to make his wife Antonella passionate and since 2013 she too has approached the world of wine. Antonella has been passionate and devoted to the world of travel since 2000, with organizational skills she guarantees the best travel experience by identifying the needs and preferences of customers. With her professionalism and relationship with the public she achieves important goals. With her work, her travels and her passion for wine she discovers the union between the two worlds.
Michele and Antonella, between travels, visits and tastings in the cellar, participation in wine events and tasting many dishes and recipes in "refined" restaurants in Italy, never detach themselves from their umbilical cord: Irpinia.
We are happy to convey the love we feel for our land and the passion with which we dedicate ourselves to our project.
The project was born in 2018, precisely on June 26, from the social page "Vitigni Irpini" an innovative way to promote, through interviews and tastings with wineries, the Irpinia territory. The Vitigni Irpini idea was immediately well received by producers, professionals in the sector and simple enthusiasts of the world of wine. After two years of intense work and meetings with wine producers, in March 2020, in full lockdown, they realized the idea in the drawer "Adopt a vine" which from December 16, 2020 became reality with the platform www.vitigniirpini.com
“A winner is a dreamer who never gave up”
Vitigni Irpini is always growing, a volcano full of ideas always oriented with love towards the territory, where Michele and Antonella with professionalism and "soul" build loyalty in the customer who buys on the platform and the tourist who comes to Irpinia; because they believe that they are the heart of the project they care deeply about.
Vitigni Irpini believes that details and professionalism make the difference, which is why it relies on people who are experts in every role. We take this opportunity to thank all those who advise; in particular, we thank our friends Roberto, Enrico and Massimo who, during the start-up phase and whenever they can, help Michele and Antonella with communication.
“Everyone can improve despite their circumstances and achieve success if they are passionate about what they do”
Vitigni Irpini believes in the union with and between producers and precisely for this reason that from a professional feeling, based on trust, respect, dialogue and comparison the Vitigni Irpini project is born, initiatives and events in which the beauty of Irpinia and the magic of territorial wines emerge. We are ready to welcome you, to entertain you and to taste... HAPPINESS IS REAL ONLY IF SHARED!
THE STORY OF OUR LOGO
Logo comes from the Greek λόγος, which means “word”, short for logotype (typos in Greek actually means “letter”): a graphic symbol that includes letters and shapes that represent a product, a company, an idea. Not only that, the logo is also the emblem of the environment and the era in which people live. The evolution of logo design could be traced back to ancient Greece, when the rulers and their dynasties used monograms for their coins. The modern design of a logo, however, dates back to the Renaissance, around the 13th century. Here goldsmiths, paper producers and many others used gold printing signs, chiseled symbols, watermarks on paper and simple fingerprints on ceramics. Today all companies use a sign, an icon, a symbol or a combination of these as a logo: it is certainly one of the aspects that most characterize modern society and that of the recent past. Logo today means branding.
The "Vitigni Irpini" logo was born from Antonella's idea thanks to her passion for art and fashion passed down from her mother 'Rinuccia', an art history teacher and fashion designer.
The name "Vitigni Irpini" identifies the territory with history, culture and tradition in the winemaking world.
The sterilized glass and bottle reported under the name "Vitigni Irpini" means that the quality vinified by the producers, coming from the vineyards of Irpinia, is found in the bottle and the wine will be poured into the glass with which the excellence of the Irpinia wine will be tasted.
The colors: Green and white are the colors of green Irpinia! The burgundy color to identify the wine.
The shape: because the earth is round, the Irpini are part of this fantastic world and we are ready to welcome tourists from all over the world!
The phrase: AUTHENTIC AND GENUINE IRPINIA, A FASCINATING LAND is the phrase with which tourists greeted us after staying and visiting Irpinia. This phrase made us happy and we made it "ours".
