2009 Chateau Gloria Saint-Julien

The 2009 Chateau Gloria is a Saint-Julien from a great Bordeaux vintage. It is a mature, classic left-bank red with cassis, cedar, and softened tannin. Gloria has long been a value name in Saint-Julien, and 2009 gave it unusual richness. Decant it and serve with roast lamb, steak, or aged cheese.
