This is our general project description: 
We are doing from the point of view of LVMH (Minuty, Chateau d’Esclans, and Galoupet), as if we are working for them. 
I personally need to focus anything related to marketing specifics, other team members are doing pricing, history, terroir, and etc. 
Mission
To conduct a comprehensive analysis of the competition between rosé wines from Côtes de Provence AOC (Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée) and rosé wines from other regions around the world. Students will explore the differentiation factors that make Côtes de Provence unique and assess its potential to become the “Champagne of Rosé Wines”, meaning the most desired rosé wine in the world, emphasizing the region’s potential for producing high-quality and sophisticated rosé wines. Additionally, the project will address the risks associated with newcomers in the market and the impacts of climate change, while emphasizing the importance of sustainability in differentiation.

The findings section must include: 
• A clear structure, by theme or topic, for presenting your findings. 
• Clearly stated findings followed by the supporting evidence from your research. 
• Self-explanatory graphs, tables, figures, charts to visualize and/or summarize the data. “Selfexplanatory” means that the reader should not have to read a lot of additional text to understand the data presented. 
The implications section must include:

What I was thinking about the structure: (Methodolody: surveys, interviews, secondary data)
Feel free to adapt to anything you think could be relevant, I personally went to Chateau d’Esclans, Chateau Minuty, Domaine Tropez, Léoube. You can come up with the interviews and so on. 
At this point, no recommendations should be provided.
