You pull away from Lisbon as Atlantic light clings to the coast and the city recedes into tiled roofs and tram lines. The road curves north; ocean vistas give way to olive groves and the folded vineyards of the Douro Valley. Windows down, the Atlantic breeze dares you to watch for giant curls of white at Nazaré while the river ahead pushes the landscape into terraces of grapevines that have fashioned this region for centuries.
