The internationalization of places has influenced territorial dynamics, especially due to economic interests. This fact has provoked discussions among local social actors to think about the territory. In this sense, this research seeks to analyze the performance of state and local social actors in promoting territorial policies for the wine sector. Bairrada was chosen as the locus, which is one of the wine and gastronomy routes in Portugal. Although its origin is the region Denomination of Origin, the focus was on the territory. For this research, the theoretical and methodological approach was centered on territorial development, considering the typology of social, public and private actors, the types of actions, the circulation and communication networks, the space-time relationship of its territorialities and developmental relations. The research was conducted in two stages. In the first stage, a brief bibliographic and documentary review was carried out. In the second stage, an empirical research was conducted in Bairrada with interviews with public and private managers. The results indicate that the Bairrada territory has shown a positive development, leading to a desirable (normative) and more dynamic development.
