10 Fine Ports for special occasions.
For many people, Port is a drink for special occasions, but for me, every day is the right time for a glass.

I have been told this drink is going out of fashion many times, but I disagree. If it were no longer in fashion, would so much space be taken up in the supermarket wine aisle throughout the year?

This is a wine that keeps giving, as there are many styles for all pallets.
I have a great selection of ports for you here.
First, what is it?
It is a fortified wine made by adding a proportion of grape spirit, or brandy, to the wine during production.

What are the three styles of Port?
Ruby is the most produced and cheapest. It’s a blend of different vintages with an average age of three years, and it's meant to be drunk within a few days of opening it.

Tawny can keep quite a bit longer, its rich and mellow tawny ports age for longer periods in oak casks.
There is also a category that is vintage. It is only taken from the best-declared vintages, which are then aged two years before bottling.

We also have White port, which is a fabulous drink on its own, and I will be looking at it on its own merits. Although not as popular as red and tawny, there is still quite a growing market for it. Like its red counterpart, it can also be vintage or non-vintage, otherwise known as NV.
