Tasted at Bordeaux Index's annual 10-Year On tasting in London and at the château, it has been some years since I tasted the 2006 Gloria when I admit to giving the wine a "bashing." Now at ten years of age, to be brutally honest, I am not so inclined to alter that position. The bouquet feels a little simple, slightly smudged, with balsamic-tinged black and red fruit, slightly herbaceous in style. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy, slightly rustic tannin, quite advanced vis-a-vis its peers; it has a diffuse, rather drying finish that frankly would not be accepted by the property today, after the château was essentially rebuilt. I would drink this over the next 5-6 years, no longer. Tasted April 2016.
Tasted blind. Looks quite evolved. Very juicy. Then gunpowder and cordite chewiness. Not quite knit together. But impressive length. (JR)

The modest Ch. Gloria was only created in the 1940s, when Henri Martin – a cooper – purchased some vines. With parcels dotted in amongst the region’s Classed Growths, it produces impressive wines. Today it's managed by Vanessa and Jean Triaud (Henri Martin’s granddaughter and grandson-in-law).
