One of the oldest Port houses in the region, Quarles Harris was established in 1680 by Thomas Dawson, making it one of the first to start shipping Port. Immediately the company enjoyed great success, and at one point it became the second largest exporter of Port. Nowadays Quarles Harris is owned by the Symington family, who have excellent connections with growers in the heart of the Douro region, where the Vintage 2003 is produced. Quarles Harris’s flavor profile is known for its firmness and slightly dry style.
