Quinta da Terrugem ALABASTRO Alentejano 2023

Constantly picking up gongs for brilliant value for money (Wine Spectator and others), Ciconia Tinto combines approachability with Alentejo's most likeable features of rich, soft fruit, with a bit of roast and dried fruit notes. Ciconia, for the benefit of non-twitchers, is the latin genus for the stork, and Ciconia Ciconia is the white stork, which so likes to breed in this region.

Located just outside the walled town of Estremoz, this 22 hectare estate is referred to by eRobertParker as the "Jewel of the Alentejo."
