lindemans pool.jpgLindeman’s has launched a multi-million-dollar, global brand campaign via DDB Melbourne, which places sunshine firmly at the heart of Lindeman’s brand DNA.

The campaign seeks to build on the consumer connection with the 170-year-old brand that is enjoyed in more than 22 countries around the world.

With the new brand line “It’s the sunshine that makes it”, the campaign looks at how Lindeman’s is a perfect match for great moments with friends and family, whether it’s unwinding at the end of a busy day, taking the time to appreciate the small things – like a captured moment in the sun – or simply looking on the brighter side of life.

Sunshine is a wonderful thing that transforms our mood and the world around us for the better. It’s also a vital ingredient, adding vitality and brightness, to every bottle of Lindeman’s easy-drinking wine.

“It’s the sunshine that makes it” campaign features a 60 second TVC with print, in-store and digital support. The TVC is a departure from traditional wine commercials leaving iconography and category images of vineyards and barrels firmly behind. The commercial utilises stop-motion and shows the relationship between humankind and sunshine.

Says Darren Spiller, DDB Melbourne executive creative director: “The sun has always made us feel good; it’s a human truth. In this campaign we’ve used the sun a metaphor for how a brand like Lindeman’s can make you feel.”

The first phase of the campaign launched in Sweden in September and will roll out internationally over the next 12 months.
