Wine region
Sun, maritime influence and sheltering hills frame the four traditional appellations of Lagos, Portimão, Lagoa and Tavira.
← All wine regions
Overview
Lagos, Portimão, Lagoa and Tavira are the four traditional DOCs, sheltered by northern hills and open to maritime influence.
Negra Mole and Castelão reds, Mediterranean whites and recent projects are recovering a wine landscape long pressured by tourism.
Overview
Lagoa and Silves work as a western base; Tavira opens the eastern Algarve beyond the coast.
Use these bases to build a two or three-day trip. Confirm visitor access, times, language, price and accessibility directly with each producer.
