Planalto changes face: the Douro classic prepares to win over a new generation

SAPO Notícias11 September 2026 at 10:33

Planalto, one of the historical references of white wines from the Douro, is undergoing a complete renewal of its visual identity. This change marks the beginning of a new stage for the brand, which intends to remain relevant across generations.

The image renewal comes as part of a strategy to win over a new generation of consumers, showing that the brand does not intend to be stuck in the past, but rather to adapt to current times.

The Douro is one of the most prestigious wine regions in Portugal, and the region's white wines have been gaining increasing international recognition. With this renewal, Planckalt hopes to establish itself among a younger audience, while simultaneously maintaining the quality that has always characterized the brand.

Business owners request AdC analysis of air fares to the Azores. Round trip can cost up to 500 euros

The Ponta Delgada Chamber of Commerce and Industry has requested the Competition Authority to analyze the competitive conditions on air routes between the mainland and the Azores, where round-trip fares can exceed 500 euros. The business association found that the lowest fare classes are not regularly available, even when searches are performed well in advance, and points to a concentration of supply at significantly higher levels. CCIPD does not assert the existence of collusion, but considers that Ryanair's exit, combined with the TAP and Azores Airlines code-share agreement, justifies a thorough analysis. The association also warns that prices on routes to the Azores are about double the values charged on the Lisbon-Funchal route, affecting the archipelago's tourism competitiveness.
