  • Description

    Hooper's 2017 Late Bottled Vintage (LBV) Port is a distinguished fortified wine from Portugal's Douro Valley. LBV ports are crafted from a single year's harvest and aged in oak casks for four to six years before bottling, allowing them to develop rich and complex flavors.

    Tasting Notes: This 2017 LBV presents a deep ruby hue with aromatic notes of ripe red fruits, such as cherries and plums, complemented by subtle hints of spice and dark chocolate. On the palate, it offers a harmonious blend of fruit sweetness and well-integrated tannins, leading to a smooth, lingering finish.

    Serving Suggestions: Best enjoyed slightly chilled, between 16°C and 18°C. It pairs excellently with strong cheeses like Stilton or Roquefort, dark chocolate desserts, or can be savored on its own as a digestif.

    Storage: Store the bottle upright in a cool, dark place. Once opened, it is recommended to consume within a few weeks to maintain optimal flavor.
