Port told him the wine "must be off" when he finished the drink and noticed sludge at the bottom of the glass.
He then made the alleged victim a vodka and coke which caused him to quickly feel "very dizzy".
"I didn't necessarily feel sick, I just felt very very very dizzy and tired," he said.
"It was something that I had never felt before, it wasn't drunkenness it was something entirely different and something that felt to me very sinister.
He continued: "I told the defendant that I felt quite dizzy and mentioned that I had not had much to eat that day."
Port offered the teen some Cadbury chocolate as he tried to 'save face' and by making himself sick to "get rid of whatever it was" making him drowsy.
"I said that I was very tired because I kept falling asleep and I was also drowsy and he suggested that I go and lie down on the bed," he said.
"I fell asleep when I got into the bed, it must have been immediately."

Port showed no emotion in the dock as the man told jurors he awoke to find alleged serial killer raping him.
He said: "I recall waking up naked, faced down on the bed spread eagle.'
Mr Rees said: "Was anyone else in the bedroom at the time?'
He replied: "He (Port) was there. He was on top of me naked as well."
The man said he had done "nothing at all" to give Port the impression he wanted to have sex and claimed he was "semi-conscious" and unable to consent.
He fell asleep again within minutes and woke up the next day still feeling "very disorientated", it was said.
"I was frightened because I couldn't remember large portions of the night," he said.
Port offered to give him a lift back to Barking station and spoke to him "as if nothing had happened", jurors heard.
Mr Rees asked: "Did you make any accusations about what had happened?"
He replied: "No, I was too frightened."
The man said he had taken medication to treat Crohn's disease for three years but said he had not been warned against drinking alcohol.
Port denies charges involving 12 males including four murders, four alternative charges of manslaughter and administering a poison with intent to endanger life or inflict grievous bodily harm.
The trial continues.
