Whether you’re a seasoned oenophile or a curious wine enthusiast, exploring the best wineries in Lisbon is a must on any luxury trip to Portugal.
Below are some of the finest wineries around Lisbon, handpicked for their heritage, quality, and charm—ideal for a memorable day tour or part of a longer, indulgent journey with Portugal Magik Private Tours.

3. Manzwine – Cheleiros
A true boutique winery with a compelling story, Manzwine was founded in the sleepy village of Cheleiros, about 30 minutes from Lisbon. The revival of the almost extinct Jampal grape variety is one of the winery’s proudest achievements.
