Resumo

Introdução: No enoturismo, as adegas funcionam como pontos centrais, oferecendo não apenas produção, armazenamento e engarrafamento de vinho, mas também uma variedade de experiências turísticas, como eventos vínicos, visitas às vinhas e alojamento. As adegas estão, assim, bem posicionadas para promover outros atrativos do destino turístico.

Objetivo: Investigar de que forma quatro adegas de referência no Alentejo, Portugal, promovem a sua envolvente, incluindo atrativos locais, serviços complementares e práticas de sustentabilidade com foco no bem-estar da comunidade.

Métodos: Foi utilizada uma análise empírica em duas etapas: primeiro, entrevistas em profundidade com gestores de enoturismo sobre estes tópicos; segundo, a análise do conteúdo dos seus sítios da internet oficiais para identificar elementos que promovam a sua envolvente mais ampla.

Resultados: Os resultados indicam que, embora os gestores sublinhem a importância de destacar a envolvente e as iniciativas de sustentabilidade, os sítios da internet analisados dão, sobretudo, relevo aos produtos vínicos e às experiências turísticas inerentes às próprias adegas.

Conclusão: Embora os sítios da internet de duas adegas abordem as suas políticas ambientais e sociais, estas não são destacadas de forma proeminente, funcionando mais como informação complementar do que como parte integrante da sua comunicação online.
