2016 Château Gloria On Sale ~ $47.99
Taste Gloria + 3 Bordeaux's SAT 3-5 PM
Bordeaux Month is Firing on all Cylinders!!!
Of course when we decided to dedicate an entire month to promoting, marketing and tasting Bordeaux wines, we anticipated a big success, but we did not realize how big, how fantastic, and how fun & exciting it would be! Here we are in Week 3 bringing you one of Bordeaux's most sought after estates :: Château Gloria. Over the last 10 years, Gloria has been on our Top Selling list, in the league of red hot wines like Caymus Cabernet. We sold 100+ cases of 2009 and 2010 Gloria, and this 2016 is being touted as even better than those two epic vintages. The 2016 is a culmination of all the positive changes and hard work being done at Gloria in Saint Julien over the last 20 years. We will taste this beauty along with a 92 point 2015 Saint Estephe; a ridiculous bargain 2015 Saint Emilion @ $19.99; and we will re-taste the 2016 Lacroix-Martillac Blanc because at last week's event, our clients loved it!

'A Real Head-Turner! Rich Deep and Explosive' Vinous 96
|
|
| RATED 96 VINOUS GALLONI : 'The 2016 Gloria is one of the undisputed stars of this vintage. Rich, deep and explosive, it possesses tremendous intensity in all of its dimensions. Sweet red cherry, tobacco, menthol, licorice & dried rose petal all add complexity. In 2016 Gloria is a real head-turner. It should be a fabulous value as well. There is not much else to say.' |

RATED 92 JAMES SUCKLING : 'A blend of 62% Merlot, 33% Cabernet Sauvignon and the balance Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc, the 2015 Château Lilian Ladouys is a serious Saint-Estèphe that shines in a vintage which was more difficult for the northern portions of the Médoc. Possessing medium-bodied notes of currants, dried herbs, spice and hints of background oak, it’s nicely balanced on the palate, has fine, ripe tannin, moderate density, and an undeniable charm that will keep it drinking nicely for 15 years or more.' |

RATED 92 WINE ENTHUSIAST : 'This 19th-century estate is situated on Saint-Émilion's east side. With its ripe spiciness and firm wood flavors it has all the structure needed for aging. That contrasts well with the bold black fruits and perfume from the Cabernet Franc.' The La Chapelle aux Moines 2015 is a blend of 80% Merlot, 13% Cabernet Franc and 7% Cabernet Sauvignon. Pair this classic Bordeaxu with lamb, steaks and chicken, or with charcuterie, Comte Gruyere, Dijon mustard and dark olives. |

RATED 90 WINE ENTHUSIAST : 'From the young vines of this Graves classed-growth property, this wine shares some of the impressive structure and aging potential as the Grand Vin of the estate. It is ripe, juicy with grapefruit and tropical flavors balanced with spice from wood aging.' A blend of 60% Sauvignon Blanc and 40% Sémillon, with vines averaging 35 years, farmed with sustainable methods and green harvesting by hand. |
