What We Did

We began with a deep-dive interview to understand the company’s core values, audience, and growth goals.

The discovery phase revealed that Converse Wine had tons of family history and a great memorable name. The name itself having brand equity from a seed farm. We extended the brand from that to being about the pursuit of growing grapes, pushing boundaries, and creating joy.
