    The 2001 Hooper's Vintage Port is a fortified wine from Portugal's Douro Valley, produced by Hooper's, a brand with a history dating back to 1771.

    Flavor Profile: This vintage is crafted primarily from traditional grape varieties such as Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz, and Touriga Francesa, sourced from vines over 100 years old. The wine presents a deep color with violet undertones. On the nose, it offers aromas of oak and maple syrup, reflecting its aging process. The palate is rich with flavors of dried fruits like prunes and raisins, complemented by notes of dark plum

    Serving Suggestions: For optimal enjoyment, it's recommended to store the wine horizontally at a constant temperature of around 15ºC and serve it between 15ºC and 18ºC. It pairs well with blue cheese, mature cheddar, nuts, and chocolate desserts.

    Aging Potential: Given its robust structure and depth, the 2001 Hooper's Vintage Port is suitable for long-term aging, allowing its flavors to develop and mature over time.
