This one was really a disappointment for me, I got 2 bottles because I found a good price, but the taste of alcohol really seemed to dominate the drink, and I have found so far that for me the best ports are those where no particular flavor jumps out, but rather I like those that tend to be a blend ...

This was another good one, I liked the texture was a little thicker than the other's I tried

This one ends up in the middle, nothing really jumped out as being great, but still had a nice sweetness with a good finish

Thanks all for the quick replies and advice. I was able to find a new store locally with a decent selection of port through wine-searcher. But so far it seems shipping laws into IN are not particularly forgiving so my search for Ferreria tawny continues. Thanks again to everyone so far, I hope to co...

However, because ND is in a relatively small town in IN without many stores with a good selection of Port, I am left with little selection of Port. I...
