Madonna, undisputed icon of pop music, has demonstrated an authentic passion for the world of wine, investing in Ciccone Vineyard & Winery, the winery founded by her parents. The singer has teamed up with her father, Silvio “Tony” Ciccone, to launch a limited series of “Madonna wines,” sales of which are intended to support charitable initiatives.
Ciccone Vineyard & Winery, located in the hills of Michigan, was founded in 1995 by Silvio “Tony” Ciccone and his wife Joan. This winery has distinguished itself as one of the top 10 wineries in Leelanau County. The winemaking tradition has been passed down to Tony's children, with Mario managing the vineyard and Paula following in her father's footsteps, establishing herself as a winemaker, producing award-winning wines.
Madonna has a special connection to this winery, being a Michigan native. Her presence at Ciccone Vineyard & Winery not only attracts the attention of fans, but is also an opportunity for her to immerse herself in the world of wine, an interest that goes beyond a simple hobby. The singer recently took a break from her music career to focus on viticulture, becoming the first celebrity to enter the wine industry.
Madonna Vineyards Estate wines, produced in Ciccone Winery, are made with grapes grown locally in Michigan, offering a range of red and white wines that reflect the region's unique terroir. Madonna, with her commitment and attention to detail, has helped raise the profile of the winery, demonstrating that her passion for wine is not just a marketing move, but a genuine personal interest in the industry.
