Shouldn't this be in the "Other Fortified Wines" section?

Or "Other Wines", I'm not sure if this is fortified or not.

Good spot, thank you. Moved as suggested - it was fortified Shiraz.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.
