I've like this one in the past:

I found this interesting tilted version:

But it appears to be just an image-capture, a variation of the map here:

So I'm looking for a .pdf version of that. I'd like to print out one of these large for display on a wall somewhere.

Eric,

Shoot an email to Wines of Portugal. I'm sure they could send you a clean PDF of it to download, save, and print out for personal use.

Eric, I am still browsing the whole site in my limited time. BUT, and this has to be an enormous BUT, the link you gave that I clicked on showed Madeira and the Açores to be to the East of Portugal and therefore somewhere in the Mediterranean.

One map has them boxed and on the left, clearly indicating that they not to scale or placement. But yes, that other map has them floating to the right. Perhaps this was more a dig against Spain? In reality I think it was just a convenient placement by the graphic artist.
