Château Gloria Tasting Notes
Round, generous, rich, long-lasting with cedary and spicy bouquets. The wine of Ch'teau Gloria shows well young, and also ages well. The wine is fermented in stainless steel vats and spends 20 months in barrels.

Wine Spectator
Mouthfilling, with a core of plum and black currant fruit that expands in the mouth, while tobacco, graphite and roasted fig notes filling in. Long, with a dark tarry edge on the finish. —James Molesworth, 90 points

Wine Advocate
A sensational effort, the 2010 Gloria may turn out to be the finest wine they have made since 1982, although the 2009 is a serious contender for that honor as well. A bigger than life as well as more backward than normal offering, the 2010 exhibits an inky/purple color along with an opulent display of black currants, jammy cherries, licorice, cedar and roasted herbs. Some serious tannin gives the wine grip, but this is a full-bodied, big, thick, well-proportioned, super-endowed Gloria that will benefit from 2-3 years of cellaring and keep for two decades. —Robert Parker, 90 points

Wine Enthusiast
Smooth, velvet tannins are the surface of this concentrated wine. It is very juicy, ripe, then rounded by the tannins. Structured and delicious at the same time. —Roger Voss, 91 points
