Women in Wine Portugal: A new Era of education & empowerment
Honoring Women’s Contributions to Portuguese Wine
Portugal’s wine heritage is deeply rooted in tradition, but its future is being shaped by innovation—and women are leading the way. From the Douro to Alentejo, female winemakers, enologists, and viticulturists are making an undeniable impact. Yet, challenges remain in achieving full recognition and equal opportunities in this evolving industry.
At Plansel International Wine School, we believe that empowering women in wine means strengthening the entire Portuguese wine sector. A diverse and inclusive industry leads to richer knowledge, better wines, and a stronger global presence for Portuguese wines.
That’s why we are proud to announce our cooperation with Women in Wine Portugal, an initiative dedicated to supporting and elevating women in the Portuguese wine industry.
Why this partnership matters
Our collaboration is designed to provide education, mentorship, and professional development opportunities for women in wine across Portugal. Follow our channels to receive the latest updates and collaborations, and find out how you can benefit from this cooperation!
The women who are changing Portuguese wine
Portugal has a rich history of female pioneers who have transformed the industry. Women like Sandra Tavares da Silva (Wine & Soul), Filipa Pato (Filipa Pato Wines), and Susana Esteban are crafting some of the most exciting wines in the country. Their success paves the way for future generations, proving that talent and passion know no gender.
Through our partnership with Women in Wine Portugal, we are committed to supporting the next wave of female leaders in the industry.
