Madalena Vidigal has a degree in Hotel Management and a postgraduate degree in Wine Tourism, Digital Marketing and Viticulture. She is a wine producer in Alentejo, the south of Portugal. She has two great passions that are present in everything she does: wine and travel!
.
For 10 years she has been traveling around Portugal and abroad to learn about the best of wine tourism in the world. From Barossa Valley in Australia to Napa Valley in California, from Casablanca in Chile to Bordeaux in France, from Judean Hills in Israel to Tokaji in Hungary, Jerez and Rioja in Spain. And of course, Portugal from North to South and islands!
Madalena created EntreVinhas.com in 2015, the first blog in Portugal entirely dedicated to WineTourism and in 2021 she launched the Podcast “5 Minutos de Vinho” (5 Minutes of Wine) to explain wine language. She is also a WineTourism Educator with her own online course.

What fascinates Madalena about wine is that it’s complex and intriguing that there is so much to learn. From the vineyard, to winemaking, to cork and barrels, everything about wine is fascinating. Then there is, of course, the human side and arguably the most important in this world. The people who make and “live” wine are the best part of working in this sector.
