From the "Matured in Oak Casks" on the label, the visible T-Stopper ridges at the top, the relative "new-ness" of the labels, and the very high fill, I can only assume this is a recently released Colheita.

Quarles Harris 1974
Benchmark wines has a bottle of "Quarles Harris Port Personal Reserve 1974" which I requested a picture of. I'm posting it outside the retail thread as i think it may be of general interest, should this bottle be encountered elsewhere:

Port wine should perhaps be added -- A Trollope

Vargellas and Guimaraens apparently also released SQVPs in 1974.

This is definitely a colhieta. The Symington family produce colhietas from most of their brands to be sold into the Skandanavian market. I have both Warre and Dow 1965 colheitas and have seen others.SushiNorth wrote:From the "Matured in Oak Casks" on the label, the visible T-Stopper ridges at the top, the relative "new-ness" of the labels, and the very high fill, I can only assume this is a recently released Colheita.

Got one of these as well and figured it must be a Colheita
