Can someone recommend a port for me that's noob friendly, available readily, pairs well with full bodied maduros? Maybe fairly affordable?
I really like the 15, 20, and 30 year Fonseca but the price goes up based on the age.

If it's Red Port, for me it has to be a Vintage or a LVB (late bottled vintage). Young red ports taste like grape cough syrup to me.
Thanks Pro.
If you have a Total Wine and more shpo there, they have a good selection and this is the time of year to get stuff like this because you get the sets with free glasses and other crap. I buy a lot of my hooch this time of year!

TWaM...........are the chit, never knew about 'em until my daughter moved to Charleston, they actually have the best cigar selection and prices in Charleston, LOL.........I signed up alst night and got a coupon right ff the bat for 5 off a 50 purchase of wine, and yes they have quote a few specials now!
I grabbed a bottle of Chococlate Pecan Pie Liqueur at Firefly Stilry, not available elsewhere, like their Lemon flavored vodka, some fella came from NOrth Charleston to grab a couple bottles while we were there.
We don't have the total wine place but a fair amount of privately owned single shpos with decent selections. I just don't wanna grab that one bottle that port drinkers would say, oh, you bought that one?
I lived 5 miles from that store for about 7 years. Awesome beer and wine selection on one side and even better liquor selection on the other side.
total wine and more here in Charleston is the best walk-in, if that's any indication of the B&M's here, LOL
Glad to help you out.

I was gifted a bottle of California Port from 1993
Once opened does it hold for a while or does it start to lose its flavor?
