Trying a new to me Port tonight, I usually grab one from a semi local winery but changed it up and grabbed this

Warre's Warrior

Not bad but for $3 less I like my Jersey Devil better.

I like Ports, never know what to buy though. Tawny, LBV, $$$ or $$?

Charles & Charles 2014 Rose tonight. Columbia Valley, very dry and crisp.

Went well with shrimp & linguine with a slightly spicy red sauce once it warmed up a little.
Should have taken the bottle out of the fridge 20 minutes before pouring.

about $13.

I kind of lean towards the Ruby over Tawny, but I will grab a tawny when the mood strikes. I don't spend a ton on a bottle as I am not sure my palette is refined enough to notice much difference yet. I stay around $15 to $20 a bottle for the most part, the semi local Jersey Devil is $15 so that is perfect for me lol.

I usually will drink ports only during cold weather. Of course for Scottsdale that is anything under 60F.

Fladgate 12 year Tawny last night.

I have heard that Ports are cold weather wines. Goes kind of hand in hand with bourbon being more of a winter drink I guess because of the ABV. I had a couple bottles of ruby this summer that was nice after a BBQ to wind down.

Dow fine white port

giving it a taste and not sure how I feel about it. Kind of a mix of a ruby and tawny it feels to me. Drinking it at room temp which is about 68, might try another glass tomorrow night at a colder temp.

Brown County Winery Old Barrel Port - (20% alcohol) Bourbon barrel aged and smooth. Super good desert wine. I don't drink much wine. Will have to try pairing it with a cigar.

Ports pair great with a cigar imo. I actually like just about any red wine with a cigar not so much the whites but then again they are not my favorite to begin with.

Gnarly Head 1924 Limited Edition Double Black 2013

it's a red blend and I really like this one
