National and International Promotion

Until 2023, ViniPortugal will continue to focus on the message that the Wines of Portugal remain genuine and with strong Portuguese character.

With a heritage of more than 250 native grapes, Portuguese wines offer a unique experience, taking advantage of the diversity of Portuguese terroirs and grape varieties, thanks to the techniques and people who make them. In their diversity, they are versatile and gastronomic. In their quality, they rival the best in the world.

The Wines of Portugal brand will continue to be consistently present across 4 continents and 21 strategic markets. With an investment of 8.3 million euros for 2022, 114 annual actions will be carried out to promote Portuguese wines, with the direct participation of national producers. The U.S.A., Brazil, Canada and China will be the greater focus for the promotion of Portuguese wines, with 51% of the budget for these four countries. The events for professionals and consumers

will be a major component of promotion, although losing in markets where distribution is already extended and / or markets already recognized by consumers.

Today, Portuguese wine international reputation is unquestionable. Portuguese wine exports also confirm the sector's dynamism. In 2020, exports of all types of wines grew 4.5%.

There is still much to be done to reinforce the reputation and value of the Wines of Portugal brand, but the results show that the sector is on the right track and that the future is promising.
