Depends on what you call official. From:

http://www.freebsd.org/ports/index.html

"However, the most convenient (and common) method is to download the
framework for the entire list of ports by installing the entire ports
hierarchy at FreeBSD installation time, and then have thousands of
applications right at your fingertips."

"entire ports hierarchy" links to:

http://www.freebsd.org/ports/installing.html

Which lets you download the entire tar.

If they no longer upgrade the entire ports collection tar any more, then
they should simply remove it from their own pages.

Anyway, I think I'll use cvsup from now on to keep everything current.
