Description

Founded by Henri Martin in 1942, Château Gloria is a relative new winery by Médoc standards but is widely recognised as one of the top estates in the St-Julien appellation. Henri expanded the vineyard holdings and today the estate spreads across 48ha of the best terroir in St-Julien. Château Gloria is now run by family member Jean Louis Triaud and is renowned for producing a more elegant style of St-Julien with great ageing potential.

Potential Drinking Window 2024-2035

A darkly herbal nose, blackcurrant and brambles. Juicy and alive on the palate, this is quite high-toned with a sharpness to the fruit yet also a pencil lead-chalkiness giving this push pull of brightness as well as a savoury touch. I like the clarity of flavours, the precision that comes across - it's playful and fun and all seems in balance with the minerality showing through on the palate too. A little light on the mid palate, but easy to like.
- 90/100 Points, Decanter Wine Magazine

Tasting Note

Black cherry, cassis and violet on the nose, lifted by graphite and a touch of cedar. Medium-bodied and precise on the palate, with fine tannins, fresh acidity and a long, savoury finish.
