The Grape Game
A virtual game that invites everyone to explore the vine cycle and the culture of Alvarinho wine.
The Grape Game is a virtual game created by Soalheiro that invites everyone — especially children and young people — to explore the vine cycle and the Alvarinho wine culture in a fun and educational way , without leaving home.
Available for free at www.jogodauva.pt (direct access to the game), this digital experience allows you to follow "The Adventure of the Alvarinho Grape," tracking the grape from the vine to the bottle and facing some of the natural challenges of the vine's cycle.
Learning without leaving your seat
The game's concept revolves around "moving forward without leaving place" : despite being played online, each participant progresses through the entire vineyard process — pruning, growth, harvesting, and production — learning about agricultural practices, natural cycles, and characteristics of the Monção and Melgaço subregion.
This approach makes the game accessible to all ages, transforming knowledge about viticulture and territory into an interactive and fun experience.
Education and connection with the territory
The Grape Game was used as an educational tool, especially in schools in the subregion , in the context of Subregion Day .
The idea is to involve new generations in the culture of Alvarinho wine, to value the winemaking tradition of Monção and Melgaço , and to reinforce its identity, even in digital environments.
By providing an interactive experience that replicates the vine's life cycle, the game brings children, young people, and families closer to local viticulture, contributing to social, territorial, and cultural education .
Why to play?
- Learning about the vine cycle and Alvarinho wine in a fun way.
- Explore the territory without leaving home.
- Strengthening the connection with the landscape and local producers.
- Bringing different generations closer to wine culture.
