Port wines (often just called Port) bring to mind that warm, slow sip in front of the fire after a good meal or perhaps after a day hitting the slopes. While people tend to serve Port as a solo sipper, it also pairs well with chocolate and cheese – including blue cheese, which doesn’t pair well with most wines. Port is a fortified wine, meaning the fermentation is stopped early by adding a neutral grape spirit designed to kill the yeast, thus locking in the wine’s natural sweetness and boosting the alcohol content.
