Did you know? Every year on the day of São João, the Port wine brands show their competitive spirit by participating in a race with their “barcos rabelos”, known as the “Regata de Barcos Rabelos”. ⛵ And if you're wondering: yes, these are the same boats that were historically used to transport Port wine from the estates in the Douro Valley to the cellars in Vila Nova de Gaia, and they can still be seen along the banks of the Douro River. As usual, Sogrape was also part of this race with Sandeman, Porto Ferreira and Offley boats. Check some pictures! #Sogrape #Regata #PortWine
