Château Gloria brings together the greatest terroirs of Saint Julien.

Tasting Note - The 2017 Gloria is medium to deep garnet-purple in color with a nose of warm blackcurrants, baked blackberries and plums with cedar, earth and herbs hints. The palate is medium-bodied, juicy, soft and easy-breezy. It was aged for 14 months in French oak, 40% new. About 65% of the production was produced as grand vin. Dense color, good smoky cassis nose, depth and clarity of fruit, still green but good depth and class. After 90 minutes in the decanter it will be singing nicely alongside a nice ribeye!
