I drink Madeira, which is also a fortified wine like port, and I would recommend either something spicy like a Viaje or something earthy/leathery like a Fuente maduro of some sort. For CC's I'd go with something floral, an ERDM or LFdC or something Partagas; enough umph to balance the sweetness of the port. Just a thought.
