From the extensive Port list at JJ's in Kansas City, MO. Only $7.50 a glass.
Amber color, toffee-like flavors plus prunes, toasted almonds. Maybe some orange peel? Lengthy finish--four lapper. Caramel undertone (that's the toffee part). Suggestion of coffee beans. Not at all "grapey." Had with small portion of flourless chocolate cake with dark chocolate frosting and slivered almonds on the top. Quite rich and dense chocolate--semisweet to bitter. Slivered almonds added to the pairing with the older Port.

This is a nice Port, but IMHO it is not worth the price difference from the 20 y/o Tawny.
