Never tried personally. Port is traditionally red wine fortified with grape spirit - the grape spirit is added to kill off the yeast when about half of the sugar has fermented in the wine. There's a thread in the wine section where 80/- had started one but he hasn't posted in a while to report his findings.
I guess you could try with your favourite spirit that would compliment honey?
I have made a few "port-like" meads. My favorite is my elderberry mead. The last batch ended up with 19% alcohol and was a little sweet. It is wonderfully port-like, and just incredible to drink!
