Sogrape remains committed to raising consumer awareness about the importance of moderation and the risks of drinking and driving

From the 23rd to the 26th of February, as part of the promotion of the Wine in Moderation program and its commitment to the Alcohol and Health National Forum, Sogrape was present at Essência do Vinho, in Oporto, and carried out 1396 breathalyser tests, which revealed values between 0 and 2.98 g/l.

Along with the breathalyser tests, over 1400 brochures were handed out to visitors, containing guidelines for low-risk consumption, units of measurement and the legal Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) limits for driving in Portugal. As with any other alcoholic beverage, the consumption of wine affects the capacity to perform certain activities, such as driving, and it is always advised to avoid drinking alcoholic beverages when driving.

Through these initiatives, Sogrape aims to raise awareness of the benefits of a moderate consumption and the risks of alcohol abuse and drink and of driving under the influence of alcoholic beverages.

In this 2023 edition, over 1400 consumers were reached.
