WINEGRID participated in SITEVI 2025 in Montpellier, the leading international trade show for viticulture and winemaking in France.

The event provided an important opportunity to engage with winemakers, cellar managers, and other industry professionals. At our stand, we showcased how WINEGRID Data-Driven Assistant is supporting winemakers with precision data and actionable predictions.

The event generated strong interest from industry-leading wineries in integrating WINEGRID solutions, serving as a platform to establish new contacts and create promising opportunities for collaboration and the adoption of smart solutions across larger-scale operations.

Additionally we had visits from clients sharing their experiences and positive feedback on the benefits of integrating WINEGRID into their operations. Their insights highlighted the practical impact of technology in cellar management and reinforced the value of innovation in the sector.

SITEVI 2025 emphasized the value of collaboration and knowledge sharing, helping WINEGRID strengthen relationships and discover new ways to support winemakers in shaping the future of wine production.

At WINEGRID we are driven by innovation and precision and our mission is to shape the future of winemaking technology.

This year (2025) we are honored to receive the Australian WISA – Wine Industry Suppliers Association Inc Impact Award for Engineering & Equipment, attributed to our Data-Driven Assistant, a distinction that reflects our dedication to supporting winemakers with precision data and actionable predictions.

Words from the Juri:
“WINEGRID’s wholistic approach to sensing, data collection and decision-making algorithms in the fermentation, maturation and wine storage environment is a gamechanger in winemaking and winery operations.

Its sensing technology can be utilized, together with their dashboard, to enhance the winemaking teams’ ability to make more informed and real time decisions. This technology will not only save time for operations and winemaking staff, but it will also aid to producing higher quality products and increasing the bottom line.

A great example of how to move beyond simply collecting masses of data, to releasing a system that analyses and responds to the data. The forward-looking features allows users to think ahead to what is coming, rather than react to what has been.  Allowing users to setup their own boundaries develops trust with the application and complements their decision making. 

A visionary leap toward fully digital winemaking — combining precision data, predictive technology, and practical application to redefine how fermentation is managed.”

Widely regarded as a leading industry distinction, the WISA Australia Impact Awards celebrate impactful contributions to innovation and operational excellence in winemaking, making this recognition especially significant for WINEGRID, as it validates our commitment to empowering winemakers with state-of-the-art innovation.

This distinction was received in person by the Enartis team in Australia at the awards gala event.

WINEGRID has been selected as a finalist in the WISA – Wine Industry Suppliers Association Inc. Impact Awards 2025 (Australia) with our Data-Driven Assistant, in two categories:

• Engineering & Equipment
• Winemaking & Oenology

This nomination is a recognition of our continuous commitment to pioneering innovation that elevates Oenology and empowers winemakers through data-driven precision, efficiency, and actionable insights.

The winners will be announced during the Gala Dinner on November 20th of 2025 at the InterContinental Adelaide, Australia.

Last Thursday, the WINEGRID Summit took place in Beja, an event dedicated to reflecting on the 2025 harvest, which is now in its final stages in Portugal.

At the invitation of Enartis, and welcomed by the hosts at Herdade da Mingorra, around 30 winemakers representing various national wineries gathered to share their experiences of using WINEGRID technology and Enartis‘ technical support during the harvest.

Welcomed by winemaker Pedro Hipólito from Herdade da Mingorra, where 48 WINEGRID sensors are installed, and with presentations by Daniel Gomes (General Manager Enartis Portugal), Rogério Nogueira (CEO and Co-Founder of WINEGRID) and André Meireles (Enartis Engineering Portugal), there was also an open moment for testimonials by attendees who shared the significant impact of WINEGRID technology on the daily routine of their wineries.

The event also allowed WINEGRID and Enartis to engage in a close dialogue with the winemakers, reflecting on innovation and the future of the wine industry, both in Portugal and internationally, where both companies have been consolidating a strong presence.

WINEGRID attended once again VINITECH – SIFEL . Held from November 26th to 28th 2024, the event brought together experts, innovators, and industry leaders to discuss the latest trends and technologies for the wine industry.

We were proud to participate in the “Latest Innovations in Oenology” conference, organized by INNO’VIN, a valuable platform that generated significant interest. Numerous visitors were eager to explore our innovative monitoring solutions and discuss how they could optimize their production and improve the quality of their wines.

The collaboration between WINEGRID and Enartis at SIMEI 2024 was a game-changer.
The event, held from November 12th to 15th, attracted a large number of interested clients and visitors, demonstrating the strong demand for innovative solutions in the wine industry.

Harvest 2024 is Here! 🍇

Crafting Rioja wines with passion, Bodegas Ontañón specializes in aging their reds to perfection. Their meticulous attention to detail ensures the development of complex and harmonious flavors. To further elevate their aging process, Bodegas Ontañón has implemented WINEGRID e-bung to precisely monitor the evolution of their red wines in barrels, ensuring optimal conditions for developing extraordinary character.

With a diverse portfolio ranging from young to aged wines, Yllera Bodegas & Viñedos excels in producing fresh and aromatic whites and rosés. To maintain optimal quality and avoid stuck fermentations, Yllera Bodegas & Viñedos employs WINEGRID Wineplus to precisely monitor fermentation temperatures and track fermentation kinetics in its white and rosé wine production.
In addition, Yllera Bodegas & Viñedos uses WINEGRID e-charmat for sparkling wine production, which guarantees precise monitoring of the secondary fermentation process.

Renowned for their Ribera del Duero reds, Bodegas Veganzones specializes in crafting robust wines with intense flavors.  WINEGRID Wineplus allow them to adjust fermentation parameters in real time, ensuring greater consistency in the quality of their wines.

A leading name in Ribera del Duero, Bodegas Protos produces complex and balanced red wines. The winery’s mastery of maceration techniques, combined with the precision of  WINEGRID Wineplus fermentation management, elevates their wines to exceptional heights.
