Fodor's Expert Review Quinta da Fata

Vilar Seco, Viseu, Viseu, 3520-225, Portugal

At this working winery, about 18 km (10 miles) southeast of Viseu, you can reserve either modern apartments or antiques-filled rooms in a 19th-century manor house. The historic main building has a stone-clad sitting room outfitted with chandeliers and a fireplace. The friendly owners will happily arrange tastings of the wines produced on-site. This area is famous for its birdlife: partridges, hoopoes, and red kites are just a few of the species you might spot here.
