Shield Vert a fess engrailed Or, charged with three grapevines Purpure leafed Vert; on chief a fleur-de-lis Argent; on base two olive branches Or in saltire, fruited Sable. Mural crown Argent with three visible towers (village rank) and short white scroll, in Bénard Guedes style, with inscription in black capitals "ESPINHOSA".
Meaning:
The engrailed fess is canting, because the name of the commune means "thorny", which is "engrailed" in heraldry. The fleur-de-lis is an attribute of Our Lady of Conception, the local patron saint.
