about us
In 2023, Charleston native and serial entrepreneur Justin Wages, alongside co-founders David Kinloch and Andre Grundy, embarked on a journey to elevate the art of celebration. United by their deep Charleston roots and a passion for Prosecco, they founded Don Luchi Prosecco, a brand dedicated to turning every moment into a refreshing, luxurious experience.
Justin Wages, the visionary behind Don Luchi, expertly directs the brand’s strategy and operations. David Kinloch, a legendary music producer and studio owner, drives sales and business development, infusing the brand with his creative energy and industry acumen. Andre Grundy, a high-ranking engineer, ensures operational excellence, bringing precision and innovation to every bottle.
The trio’s shared love for travel and their commitment to infusing global experiences into the Charleston market fuel their mission: to make the finer things in life accessible and unforgettable. In early 2024, they journeyed to Italy, immersing themselves in the traditional craftsmanship behind Don Luchi’s exquisite Prosecco.
As summer approaches, Don Luchi Prosecco is poised to revolutionize the local and regional beverage scene. Their signature blend promises an unparalleled tasting experience, combining the elegance of Italian winemaking with the vibrant spirit of Charleston. Join us in raising a glass to moments that sparkle, with Don Luchi Prosecco–where every sip is a celebration that will endure for generations.
Valdobbiadene
Valdobbiadene, along with Conegliano, forms the heart of the Prosecco Superiore DOCG zone. This designation signifies the highest quality level within Italy's wine classification system. The region's hilly terrain, climate, and soil composition contribute to the distinct characteristics of its Prosecco, which is known for its freshness, aromatic complexity, and fine bubbles.
