Summary

Quarles Harris is one of the oldest known shippers of Port and was the second largest at the end of the 18th century. The house was bought by the Symingtons in 1917 and has been operated by the family ever since. It is now one of the smaller Port brands in the Symington portfolio.

Style & Vinification Techniques

This is one of the brands the Symington family uses for experimentation, so modern techniques are common. The fruit is harvested and brought to one of the Symington family’s large estates (Quinta do Bomfim or Quinta do Sol) for fermentation in robotic treading lagares.
