STEVIE asked:


I have a Sheffield Tawney Port. I am a wine lover but I don’t know how this got on my wine rack and I don’t know what to do with it. I think someone gave it to me.

   You can use it as part of a marinade for beef or pork, or drink it before or after a meal as an aperitif. Port is not generally served with a meal, if I recall correctly.

   Port is a hearty red wine, and is best served after dinner: good with a cheese platter or simple fruit dessert (i.e. poached pears)

   The end this wine merchants interested in wingback chair with lemon is beverage that produce port is sipped rather than drunk from wine.

   Port goes well with dark chocolate. Small glasses, nice nightcap. It is a thick sweet desert wine. It is also fortified, so a little goes a long way. I don’t know this one but there are many fine ports.
