One problem that was not yet exploited by researchers is the relation between the region’s image as a wine producer and the individual brand equity of a company in the same region. To address this problem, the purpose of this study is exploring if an individual brand, Vinícola Goés, in a region, São Roque, can dislocate its image from the region’s negative image.
