1994 Tesco Vintage Port -- BOB (Quarles Harris?)
Posted: Tue Apr 20, 2010 4:33 am
Opened 12/13/09
Label says bottled by Symington Family Estates. Cork gives no clue to the house - VINTAGE PORT 1994, with a small capital 'B' in a circle underneath.
Dark ruby colour. Nose is leathery and plummy, and in the mouth, thick, sweet. Closed, flavours hidden behind a bitter chocolate finish, but after a couple of hours the nose is showing some herbs and aniseed amongst the fruit. Thick and fruity in the mouth, tannic and liquorice finish. Good moderate sweetness. Not bad stuff.
This port is believed to be Quarles Harris.
