The branding for Mata dos Lagares wine, located in the Douro Valley, was inspired by the complex relationship between the vineyard and its diverse fauna – both the welcome and the less welcome animals. Rather than ignoring the creatures typically seen as destructive, it was chosen to shift their narrative, giving them a new role as the symbolic face of the vineyard. This approach celebrates the richness of the ecosystem, turning once-unwanted guests into unexpected ambassadors of the land.
