No. Menu entries and icons are stored in various subdirectories of ~/.local/share and ~/.config/menus, and have to be removed manually. http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#head-8a17a13a8a4cda9e12e24a1ad4e1b1aaf043d581

In addition, some apps create folders outside the wineprefix if you don't delete the link to z:, and they, too, have to be deleted.

Note also that winetricks by default installs games and apps to their own wineprefixes in ~/.local/share/wineprefixes, not to ~/.wine.
