    Tawny Port

    I will look for it. I see WHWC has the Ferreira 10 Year Tawny Port - Quinta do Porto. Have you tried the 10 yr and do you reccomend it? (13 replies, last updated by Windy November 27, 2007)

    Good, Cheap Tawny Port?

    . A few dollars more and you’re into the big names, most of whose 10-year tawnies are quality products. That said, I find Quinta do Infantado’s Ruby delivers the biggest bang for the port buck these days. (10 replies, last updated by Bill Hunt September 23, 2009)

    With Port and Madeira

    Nice to see Port being discussed on the boards. I have recently obtained a 1963 Quinta do Noval which I am keeping for another 18 years or so for a special occasion. (5 replies, last updated by moto July 4, 2006)

    usually do a port tasting in Feb/March. Last year was all tawny ports - 4 single year and the full range of ‘specified age’ (10, 20, 30-, and 40- all from Taylor). In February, they are scheduled to do a tasting of... (29 replies, last updated by farmgirl722 January 18, 2008)

    Port Wine

    To stay in that price range you will either have to stick with Tawny Ports and/or buy what is a port style wine made in Australia. Of the former, Graham, Warre, and Taylor Fladgate all make good 10 year old non-vintage Tawny... (42 replies, last updated by MIKELOCK34 February 28, 2008)

    Vintage port question

    Quinta do Noval. Fonseca is just about the driest of the top major Port houses, and I would say QdN is second. Taylor is also very good but a bit sweeter. The same could be said of Graham’s (although I don’t like it... (6 replies, last updated by zin1953 October 31, 2007)

    recently discovered port

    by the Barros 20-Year Old. Niepoort and Noval both produce excellent 20-Year Old Tawnies, but I generally prefer their 10-Year Old bottlings. The same is true for Delaforce — their “Curious and Ancient” 20-Year... (5 replies, last updated by Bill Hunt August 11, 2008)

    2003 Port

    2003 was a declared year and should be very good. I’d stick with the established houses: Fonseca, Quinta do Noval, Taylor Fladgate, Dow, Niepoort (14 replies, last updated by Gilber20 October 18, 2005)

    port recommendation

    on a tawny color. It is very sweet, unctous, and smooth. You can get 10, 20, 30, and 40 year old, the price rising with the age, all from a good maker (Grahams, Sandeman, Fonseca, Taylor Fladgate) are great. Vintage Port from a... (25 replies, last updated by StriperGuy December 13, 2002)

    Vintage Ports: US or London

    A followup on the port tasting: I bought a 63 Croft ($169) from K&L and ordered an 83 Fonseca ($95) and an 85 Warre ($39 for 375 ml) from Golden West. My friend visiting Lisbon brought back a bottle of 20-year Quinta do Noval... (19 replies, last updated by zin1953 January 21, 2008)

    release, as are 10-20-30-40 Year Tawnies and Colheitas. Most LBVs are not going to improve in the bottle (though there are some exceptions), while VPs and Single-Quinta Ports will. Some, not coming into their own, for decades... (3 replies, last updated by Bill Hunt July 4, 2007)

    Port as a gift

    Year Old Tawny Porto from Fereirra or Barros (if you can find them where you live). You can still find some singlequinta Vintage Porto around in the $50 price range, but — again — it depends where you live. I, too,... (8 replies, last updated by whiner December 19, 2006)

    Port to pair with Stilton from Cowgirl Creamery.
