Amid huge wine jars and painted Alentejan ceramics, Adega 7160 serves traditional regional dishes with a modern twist. Start off with roasted pumpkin soup with toasted almonds (or gazpacho in summer) followed by rich black-pork cheeks with saffron or a tender oven-baked octopus. You can also make a meal of the appealing tapas selection, matched with wines from the Alentejo.
