A taste of the sea and local wine

Visit the Ilha da Armona, near Olhão in Algarve.

In Algarve there’s plenty of seafood - oysters from the Rias Formosa or Alvor opened au naturel, in the company of an Algarve white wine made from the Malvasia Fina or Síria grape varieties from closer to the sea, which also goes well with freshly cooked barnacles or the cataplana made, in Olhão.

Taste the a pink tomato salad with salt and olive oil together with a fine red wine, and end your meal with queijinho de amêndoa (almond and egg yolk delicacy).

Vinho Verde Route. Culture, Wine and Food of Northern Portugal

Plan a trip to meet Portuguese green wine producers to learn about different varieties.

Now, for 2024, there's a bit of a makeover. The usual stuff- a style update and a spruced-up interior. What caught my eye is the new Autobiography trim, taking cues from its inspiration. But the one we're cruising in is the Dynamic SE, which turns things a bit more sporty.
