The Omega Pharma Lotto rider did just enough to pip Australia's Michael Matthews (Rabobank) on the line at the end of the 167km stage from Albufeira to Tavira.
France's Anthony Ravard (AGR2 La Mondiale) took the final spot on the podium, while Britain's Stephen Cummings of Team Sky retained his lead in the general classification after finishing in the 80-rider leading group.
