Vidigueira
7.6
High score (8-10)
Vidigueira produces wine in a sub-region that doesn't get the attention of Alentejo's more marketed wine zones, though the Eugénio de Almeida Foundation's Cartuxa operation has significant vineyards here. Vasco da Gama's remains were interred in a church in this town before being moved to Lisbon's Jerónimos Monastery, giving it a minor historical footnote that local identity leans on. Wine tourism exists but it's small-scale and mostly domestic — not the kind of scene that generates real social options for a foreign outsider. The town center is a café, a church, a weekly market, and a population that's largely known each other their whole lives.
