This might be a double definition.

'port' is the first definition.
(English port city)

'sherry?' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't see how they can define each other.

'or' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for bristol that I've seen before include "car" , "Port in SW England" , "West country port" , "West Country city" , "'Bolt, sir, to the port in southwest England (7)'" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian and The Sun.
