Tasting notes
The 1990 Gloria is drinking quite well at age 32, offering up rich aromas of baking spices, blackberries, cassis, chimney soot, dried herbs and fresh leather. Medium-bodied, fleshy and savory, with melted tannins and an open-knit core of fruit, it's a creditable effort that's fully mature.

Surprisingly light, as well as lacking a mid-palate and flavor extraction, the 1990 Gloria is still a pleasant, middle-of-the-road, commercial wine that should be drunk over the next 5-7 years. Wine Advocate.February, 1993
About the producer
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).
