A Storied Vintage: The 2000 Warre's Vintage Port

At The General Wine, we're delighted to offer the prestigious Warre's Vintage Port 2000. This exceptional wine hails from a highly regarded vintage, showcasing the expertise of one of Portugal's most esteemed Port Houses.

A Legacy of Elegance: Warre's Port

Warre's, established in 1670, is renowned for its classic and age-worthy Vintage Ports. The 2000 exemplifies this tradition, crafted with meticulously selected grapes from the finest vineyards in Portugal's Douro Valley.

Tasting Profile: A Symphony of Flavours

On the eye, the Warre's Vintage Port 2000 boasts a deep ruby hue, hinting at the richness within. The first whiff unveils a captivating bouquet of ripe black fruits, such as blackberry and cassis, interwoven with enticing notes of cedarwood, spice, and a touch of black pepper.

As the wine caresses the palate, a full-bodied character unfolds, brimming with concentrated flavours of dark fruit, complemented by hints of plum and liquorice. The tannins, although firm, are beautifully integrated, offering a pleasant structure and promising excellent ageing potential. The finish lingers with a touch of spice and a delightful peppery sweetness, creating a truly memorable experience.

Food Pairings: Bringing Out the Best

The Warre's Vintage Port 2000 pairs exceptionally well with a variety of decadent desserts. Here are some suggestions to elevate your enjoyment:

• Rich Chocolate Delights: Pair the Port with a decadent dark chocolate cake or brownies. The richness of the chocolate complements the Port's fruitiness and intensity, creating a harmonious flavour profile.
• Blue Cheese Bliss: For a more savoury adventure, explore the contrasting yet delightful combination of the Port with blue cheeses. The salty and tangy notes of the cheese beautifully counterpoint the sweetness of the Port, resulting in a truly intriguing taste sensation.
