The creative marketing plan

Project description

In 2018, the European Union granted Denmark its very first wine region.

The wine region DONS is Denmark’s first and the EU’s northernmost appellation, on equal terms as the perhaps more famous regions of Bordeaux, Champagne, La Rioja, and Piedmont. The wine region DONS consists of 500 hectares of the glacial valley in the innermost part of Kolding Fjord, near the hamlet of Dons. The estate winery of Skærsøgaard is centrally located in the wine region and produces acclaimed sparkling quality wines. The designation DONS (PDO) ensures a certified standard of quality.

Are you ready to immerse yourself in the realm of wine marketing? Join us in developing a marketing plan that is not just creative but awe-inspiring. The challenge? To elevate the Skærsøgaard brand using cutting-edge marketing tools and skills, encompassing research, segmentation, customer journeys, and an in-depth understanding of communication platforms.

Inspirational field research

As participants, you will have the unique opportunity to delve into the essence of Skærsøgaard during an exclusive visit to the winery. Immerse yourself in the artistry and craftsmanship behind every bottle. Who knows, they might even let us savor the fruits of their labor.

Extend your exploration beyond the vineyards with a visit to the Viking Museum in Jelling. Once the capital of Denmark during the Viking era, Jelling is steeped in history. Stand in awe before the Viking Monument, a testament to the grandeur of Harald Bluetooth, the first Viking King. Uncover the baptism of Denmark, etched in stone, and let this rich history inspire your marketing endeavours.
