Provides Cross-Platform Marketing Expertise to Classic Brand

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Television personality and acclaimed chef Nick Stellino, President of Stellino Productions, has announced a new two-year agreement with Aveníu Brands, the exclusive U.S. marketer for approximately 30 wine & spirits brands from 8 countries. As part of this agreement, Stellino Productions will work with Artesa Vineyards & Winery (the “Jewel of Carneros”) to organize consumer events, create exclusive new videos and website applications, educate the public and trade about the outstanding quality of wines produced by this legendary vineyard. Nick Stellino will also serve as spokesperson. Wines from Artesa Vineyards & Winery are distributed exclusively by Aveníu Brands.

Stellino Productions—a secret among America's biggest companies "in the know"—specializes in marketing strategies that result in an increase of sales using a mix of media platforms to deliver core brand messages. The company has grown to include television production, distribution, syndication, publishing, PR, marketing, corporate event development, and motivational speaking. Throughout the past 10 years, this all-in-one marketing firm’s key innovation has been its method of communication and unique ability to tell a story. More than a factory for new ideas, this pioneering agency executes them faster, more effectively, and less expensively than the competition.

In acknowledgment of Stellino Productions’ work with Aveníu Brands, President Andrew P. Mansinne notes, "When I review the results of our activities with Nick and his team, I see a 70%+ increase in sales, a significant increase in both retail and restaurant distribution." Adds Chef Stellino, "My role is to help spur sales, and I am proud that Aveníu understands that Stellino Productions has a fresh and compelling skill set when it comes to telling their story in a meaningful way across a series of digital platforms."

Next month, the celebrated chef launches a new public television series, "Nick Stellino Cooking with Friends 2,” marking 2011 as his 15th consecutive, award-winning year on air. The popular author has also published nine best-selling books, including Glorious Italian Cooking, Nick Stellino's Family Kitchen, and Cucina Amore. The publication of Nick Stellino Cooking with Friends 2—the companion volume to his new series—will coincide with its American Public Television launch this April.
