Luxury holidays in Cadaval
If Cadaval is on your holiday-destination radar, you’re likely after an albariño or have a taste for touriga (just two of the region’s famed wines). An hour north of lively Lisbon, you’ll find Cadaval tucked into the quaint countryside of the Serra de Montejunto. It’s a picture of pastoral life here: windmills dot the landscape, vineyards carpet the valley and the quiet is only interrupted by the odd tolling church bell. You’ll want to polish your pronunciation of saúde (cheers) – days are spent on thirst-quenching tours of wineries.
When to go
Come to Cadaval in spring, and you’ll be met with verdant vineyards and views. Oenophiles – visit in early autumn, when harvest season begins.
