In a thoughtfully designed space across from the municipal market, Vinarium is a must for wine lovers. Here you can sample fine quaffs from the Alentejo, which pair nicely with baked cheese and oregano, baked octopus, chickpeas with cod and other small sharing plates. Provas (tastings) of three to six wines (for €5 and €7) offer excellent value.
