    Description

    The precision and elegance of a Saint-Julien red wine

    The estate

    Founded by Henri Martin, Château Gloria is an iconic reference among fine Saint-Julien wines, an appellation situated on the left bank of Bordeaux. This estate’s distinctiveness lies in its strong vineyard, meticulously built up by Henri Martin through the acquisition of plots of vines from 1855 Grands Crus Classés.

    The vineyard

    Located in the Saint-Julien AOC, Château Gloria’s vineyard spreads across 50 hectares of vines. The vineyard is dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon, supplemented by Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. The Henri Martin estates, including Château Gloria, bear the ISO 140001 and HVE3 certificates. Château Gloria’s vineyard is managed in a sustainable manner with the use of organic products and bio-control.

    The blend

    Cabernet Sauvignon (60%)

    Merlot (30%)

    Cabernet Franc (7%)

    Petit Verdot (3%).

    Château Gloria 2016: Characteristics and tasting tips

    The tasting

    Colour

    Beautiful purplish colour with bluish highlights.

    Nose

    The nose is aromatic with dense black fruits notes mixed with a mineral touch (graphite).

    Palate

    On the palate, this Saint-Julien wine is dynamic and poised on an acidic base which guarantees freshness on the mid-palate and a good sap with a solid tannic backbone. The tannins are ripe and well-integrated into the framework. The finish is exceptionally persistent.

    Cellaring

    This Château Gloria 2016 can lay in the cellar until 2028 to 2031, enabling it to express its full aromatic range.
