More than 99% of Precision and Accuracy
With more than 20 million measurements made so far, WINEGRID units produced a precision rate of 99.9% and an accuracy rate of 99.8%.
Reduce wine losses
Traditional sampling can cost wineries more than 45 Lts per day in must or wine losses.
Cost reduction up to 80%
Winegrid offers great value, as it can reduce the cost of winemaking monitoring by up to 80% in investment and 59% in recurring costs.
Time-saving
Remote and real-time data save you time and money.
The fermentation process has a decisive impact on the flavor of your wine…
… and the ability to monitor this process gives you a unique advantage.
Enjoy the full potential of your grapes
Tracking the color and turbidity will allow you to control more precisely your pressing process and extract the very best of your grapes every time.”

Master the wine maturation like never before
It is essential to preserve the wine against oxidation and contaminating microorganisms (eg acetobacteria and / or Brettanomyces sp.). Thus, filling is an essential procedure to protect the wine from oxidation and to maintain the desired SO2 level inside the barrel.
e-bung
the connected bung
The e-bung is a WINEGRID product closely designed and developed with SEGUIN MOREAU R&D Department. This technology enables the optimization of time management devoted to the topping up process and monitoring wines and spirits in barrels. The device measures the liquid level and the temperature at a frequency you select. You can configure the e-bung in order to be alerted if the barrel needs to be refilled. By refilling right away your barrels, you avoid oxidation and consequently potential development of undesired microorganism (Brettanomyces, Acetobacter, etc).
- Monitors Temperature and Distance to Liquid;
- Compatible with any conical bung hole size from 45 to 52 mm;
- Food grade certification;
- Enables custom alarms to alert the user of unusual parameters values;
- Handling events detection (operation’s traceability);
- Wifi communication and connection;
- Easy Cleaning and Maintenance;
- The e-bung measures the liquid level (in mm/inches) and the temperature (in °C/°F) at a predefined frequency.

Dashboard
The winery in the palm of your hand.
Simple. Easy. Anytime. Anywhere.
User-friendly and remote access to all the sensoring units in your winery on a computer, tablet or smartphone.
AI – Artificial Intelligence
The Platform uses Artificial Intelligence Engine to show smart notifications of events yet to happen, proactively, helping the winemaker prevent issues with the production.
Multiparameter monitoring
Through WINEGRID’s dashboard, the winemaker can access to different and important parameters in real-time.
The entire winery in one place
With WINEGRID’s Dashboard you can have an overview of your winery status and still have detailed information of all monitored vats, barrels and other units. It is a online based platform where the winemaker has access to profile analysis, alarms, task lists, traceability, smart alerts and much more.
Customizable alerts and notifications
Customize your own alerts taking into account your specific needs for the winemaking process. For example: the Dashboard can alert you when a specific temperature, liquid level or fermentation value is reached.

About us
WINEGRID – a unique project for the art of the winemaking
In 2014, after 14 years of applied scientific research in the topic of optical sensors at Telecommunications Institute of University of Aveiro, Rogério Nogueira and Lúcia Bilro founded WATGRID. The main objective was to bring high quality, accurate and reliable liquid technology to the market, enabling the digitization of processes in any liquid related industry. A few months after the company’s foundation, a new product line was created to fill a gap identified: the precise, accurate, remote and real-time monitoring of the winemaking process. Since then, through WINEGRID brand, the company has been delivering its proprietary, unique and cutting-edge technology, along with top notch customer support, to wine producers all over the world.
The innovative character of the company is based on its extraordinary human capital with more than 15 skilled collaborators in the areas of Oenology, Electrical Engineering, Physical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Data Science, Chemistry, and more. This team, with some members accumulating more than 20 years of experience in sensors design, place WINEGRID in a unique position to be a reliable strategic innovation partner for winemakers.
More than 150 million wine bottles were already produced with the precious help of WINEGRID’s solutions, and the increasing adoption of this technology by the most important wine producers is a validation of its capabilities and obvious benefits.
