Shield Argent a grapevine Vert with five bunches Purple, in chief two olive branches Vert fructed Sable with their proximal ends crossed per asltire and tied with a ribbon Gules, on base wavy Azure a barrulet wavy Argent. Mural crown Argent with three visible towers (village rank) and white scroll reading in black upper case serifed letters "ADORIGO - TABUAÇO"
Meaning:
The symbolism of this coat of arms is trivial: the olive branches stand for local oliviculture, the grapevine stands for local vineyards (this commune being part of the Port Wine PDO region), and the blue wavy base stands for the Douro River.
