1940 Quarles Harris Reserve Port

Post by SEAN C. »

The 1940 Quarles Harris Reserve was bottled in 1981 and had a T-cork, there was no real sediment upon decanting and the color was orange and brownish red with a clear edge. This Port may have been a garrafeira ? as it did not have the woody flavor of a colheita or tawny. It smelled like maple syrup and Madeira, the taste was of green grapes, and light brown sugar. It was thin in the glass and a little dull tasting, maybe just pushing past it's prime but still very good with a 12 second finish.
