July 9th to 11th 2204Vinitech Innovation Tour Portugal

This mission is organized in collaboration with ADVID, cluster for the development of the vine and wine sector in the Douro region, with activities at a national and international level.
A SNEAK PEEK INTO THE MARKET

The Portuguese wine market is rich and diverse, marked by a long history of viticulture and a wide variety of unique wines. The country is known worldwide for its quality wines, particularly Port wine and Madeira wine, but it also produces a wide range of red, white, rosĂ© and sparkling wines. 
The VIT will focus on 3 main regions: 
  • Douro: Famous for Port wine, this region also produces excellent red wines. The landscape is marked by terraced vineyards along the Douro River. 
  • Vinho Verde: Located in the northwest, this region is famous for its light and sparkling white wines. 
  • DĂŁo: Mountainous region producing elegant and balanced red wines.
TRENDS AND INNOVATION

In recent years there has been a revival of interest in Portuguese wines, both on the local and international market. Producers are increasingly focusing on quality and innovation, experimenting with sustainable production methods and modern winemaking techniques. Wine tourism is also booming, attracting wine lovers from around the world. 

In summary, the Portuguese wine market is dynamic, with a wealth of terroirs and grape varieties that make it possible to produce varied and high-quality wines. This sector continues to grow and innovate, strengthening Portugal's reputation as one of the world's great wine-producing countries.
ECONOMY AND MARKET

Portugal is an important player in the global wine market, exporting a large part of its production. Portuguese wine exports mainly go to the European Union, the United States, Brazil and China. The domestic market also remains strong, with strong per capita consumption.
