Project Germinar was born in 2019, when António Matos, a social worker and member of our Club of Producers approached Soalheiro with the idea to incorporate local mentally handicapped people into the work in his plot of vineyards. This initiative sparked a project based on integration and awareness of equal opportunities, committing to the personal and professional development of this unique group of people.
Now, we produce a special wine, named Project Germinar, from the grapes produced in this particular plot of vines.The label has been specially designed by members of the Valença branch of the APPACDM (the Portuguese Association of Parents and Friends of Mentally Disabled Citizens).
Help us help others: 30% of the sales of this wine pack are invested back into the economic sustainability of Project Germinar.
