Vinny Project -

The first consortium reunion took place in Porto, Portugal, on July 25th and 26th. This gathering marked the start of an ambitious four-year journey towards developing sustainable innovations in viticulture.

The meeting brought together 19 partners from 10 countries to present VINNY’s main objectives and outline the solutions to be developed over the next four years. Besides planning the Project’s goals, the consortium also had the opportunity to explore the Douro Valley Wine Region, with a boat trip from Peso da Régua to Pinhão. This second day ended with a visti to one of the VINNY’s experimental fields at Quinta do Pôpa, in Tabuaço, followed by a wine tasting.

VINNY’s primary goal is to drive sustainable change in viticulture through the development of eco-friendly nano biopesticides and nano biofertilizers. These solutions aim to reduce dependence on harmful agrochemicals, promoting healthier vineyard ecosystems and contributing to a cleaner, greener environment for future generations.
