Haute cuisine in the heart of the Alentejo? This restaurant is located in the Paço do Morgado de Oliveira, a 14th-century building restored in full respect of its original structure and, in turn, set within the Fitapreta winery, surrounded by vineyards and meadows where cattle graze.  Here, in an intimate yet sophisticated setting, the connection between the culinary world and that of viticulture is constant. Upon arrival, you are guided on an immersive journey while the story of the house is told, with aperitifs and stops both on the terrace and in the kitchen, a space that preserves the charm of former times. In the dining room, chef Afonso Dantas’s elaborate proposal takes shape in two contemporary tasting menus: Poda Longa and Poda em Vaso (both with wine-pairing option). Curious details? We were surprised by the bread moment, reserved for the very end, after dessert, and prepared in another room, encouraging lively conversation among diners.
