Shield Argent three heraldic fountains in fess slightly abased, on central chief a grape bunch Purpure leafed Vert. Mural crown Argent with three visible towers (village rank) and white scroll reading in black upper case serifed letters "MEDRÕES".
Meaning:
The blazoning seems strange: A much more balanced result would be easily achieved by having the fountains at the chief and the grape bunch as the main charge. And that would not affect the choice for the flag´s background.
