My brother in law, that writes cheapwineratings.com posted this about a dessert wine back in November 2008.
"The Broadbent Madeira Reserve has been aged for 5 years. The grapes in this wine include Negra Mole, Complexa, Tinta da Madeira and Triunfo. While not as refined as some vintage Madeiras aged for 20 years or more, this is still a very good and interesting treat.
The color is a rusty caramel hue. The nose presents a smoky, molasses bouquet with a hint of orange peel. The orange came out a lot stronger on the palate, along with toffee, figs and nutmeg. The toffee flavor lingers on the finish, which also brings a touch of heat."

Ports under $20--any suggestions?
What are some great ports for under $20 a bottle? I like to keep some bottles around for after dinner discussions... but it seems that most folks enjoy a $20 bottle as much as a $50.
Thoughts?

I recommend Graham's Six Grapes Port. It is delicious. http://www.grandwinecellar.com/vsku1019245.html

Tawny port: Hardy's Whiskers Blake ($12) or Fonseca ($16); Ruby port: Graham's Six Grapes ($18) or Fonseca ($17) We did a blind taste testing about a year ago, and the Fonseca took top honor in both Tawny and Ruby, beating out some bottles as high as $80.

Chowhound recommends the Quarles Harris 10 year Tawny, for $15 and the Smith Woodhouse 10 year Tawny, which is a little more than $20 most places, but apparently can be found at Trader Joe's for around $16.
