Pleasant, warm, and abundant with blue-sky days, Portugal’s cork capital hits its stride when the seasons are changing in other parts of the world. The region’s famous cork trees are stripped in the summer, leaving a gorgeous landscape of ochre trunks behind. During the day, golden hills with grazing sheep look beautifully autumnal, and by night, you can head into wine cellars and homes of our local friends if it’s slightly too cool to dine outdoors.
