Wine of Moldova: Two Generations of a National Wine Website

Wine of Moldova brings together a national brand, the wineries behind it, wine regions and places worth discovering. Its website needs to give each of those stories room to unfold. CreateGo worked on two generations of the site, combining a distinctive visual presentation with the structure needed for an expanding collection of content.

The collaboration began in 2015 and continued with a substantial redesign in 2021. The second version came with a tight deadline and a larger brief: more pages, carefully arranged information and a private area for member wineries. We delivered the WordPress website in approximately one month.

2015: a design that stayed in use until 2021

The first version established an online presence that remained in use from 2015 until the 2021 redesign. The design served the brand over several years, becoming a lasting part of how Wine of Moldova presented itself online. That longevity is one of the aspects we value most about the project.

In the years that followed, we noticed elements of this design being adopted on other websites. For our team, it was a sign that the visual direction had resonated beyond the project itself. The first version had found an identity that others were beginning to follow.

2021: a complete redesign in approximately one month

The 2021 project opened a new chapter. There were substantially more pages to include, content to organise and member functionality to add. The available time was very limited, making the delivery demanding in both scope and schedule: the expanded website had to come together in roughly one month.

We approached the interface and information structure together. Which subjects belong in the same section? How should a visitor move from an overview to a detailed page? Answering those practical questions helped shape a complete website with its information arranged and ready for publication within the deadline.

More pages, with a clear place for each subject

Visitors arrive with different interests: discovering a wine region, finding a winery or following industry news. The expanded website needed to accommodate all of them. We structured the pages around their subjects, giving the growing collection of information a clear order and a coherent presentation.

The breadth of the content is visible in the public website today, through sections devoted to wineries, wine regions, tourism, events and news. The gallery below explores several of these page types, showing how much information a national wine website brings together in one place.

WordPress and a private area for member wineries

WordPress provided the technical foundation, with an implementation shaped around Wine of Moldova's content and organisational needs. Alongside the public pages, the 2021 redesign introduced a private area for member wineries. This was an important addition to the scope of the new version.

The website now had a dedicated space for members as well as a public presentation for visitors. Both audiences formed part of the same project, extending the site's role from communicating the brand to supporting its relationship with the wineries that belong to it.

A collaboration that continued after launch

CreateGo maintained the website over the years, continuing the collaboration after launch. Other companies later took over maintenance. Our contribution spans the first version, the 2021 redesign and the ongoing support provided during our involvement.
