Default Re: The Wine Thread

6 Grapes is quite popular basic ruby port. Another one to consider is Noval Black; similarly priced. Taylor 10 is a solid 10 year tawny. You may want to try Ferreira or Ramos Pinto which are also among the best in the category. Each one of Taylor's tawny with an indication of age reflect well on what they are trying to accomplish.

Remember that 10 year tawny is not actually 10 years old. A sample is evaluated by the IDVP to represent a style of what a 10 year old tawny should taste like. They are mix of different aged colheitas blended to taste "10 years old".
