Project Overview

Carter Hospitality Group, a renowned name in the hospitality industry, operates three distinct winery brands: South Coast Winery, Carter Estate, and Carter Creek Winery.

Known primarily for their resort experiences, Carter faced a challenge in repositioning their wine brands to stand independently in the competitive wine market, particularly for B2B sales to distributors and retailers.

Business Challenge

  • Educate distributors and retailers by highlighting the team’s winemaking expertise, unique production processes, and clearly defined target audience.
  • Help shift the perception of these wines from resort memorabilia to respected, standalone brands.
  • Drive wholesale sales by positioning Carter’s wines as low-risk, high-value additions to distributor portfolios.
  • Emphasize their marketability, strong consumer appeal, and the brand’s established credibility.

Our Approach

We focused on telling a more intentional story around Carter Hospitality’s wines—one that captured the depth behind each label and resonated with trade audiences. Collaborating closely with their winemaking team, we brought forward the craft, care, and distinct identities of South Coast, Carter Estate, and Carter Creek through thoughtful visuals and messaging.

The content strategy prioritized versatility, with assets tailored for distributor presentations, digital platforms, and sales outreach. Each piece was designed to communicate not just what the wines are, but why they matter, positioning Carter’s portfolio as both compelling and credible in the broader market.
