Description
The Château Gloria Saint-Julien is one of the most beloved wines from the prestigious Saint-Julien appellation in Bordeaux. This characterful red wine combines the power of Cabernet Sauvignon with the elegance of Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot. The result is a refined Bordeaux with great depth, beautiful balance, and impressive aging potential. A wine that proves year after year why Château Gloria belongs among the absolute top producers of the Médoc.
Rich dark fruit, cedarwood, and refined spiciness
In the glass, this Saint-Julien presents itself with a deep ruby red color. The aroma is intense and complex, with notes of blackberry, cassis, raspberry, and black cherries, complemented by hints of orange peel, cedarwood, potpourri, licorice, and a subtle touch of dark chocolate. The taste is full-bodied and powerful, yet refined and harmonious. Ripe tannins, a lovely freshness, and a long, elegant finish make this wine exceptionally complete.
An icon from Saint-Julien
Château Gloria is a special winery with a unique story. The estate was built by Henri Martin, who carefully purchased parcels over decades from various renowned Grand Cru Classé châteaux in Saint-Julien. As a result, Château Gloria possesses exceptional vineyards on some of the best terroirs of the Médoc. The wine is aged in French oak barrels, which provides additional complexity, finesse, and excellent balance.
Perfect with refined meat dishes and game
This classic Bordeaux comes into its own with grilled beef, entrecôte, lamb, game dishes, and slow-cooked stews. It also pairs excellently with aged cheeses. For young bottles, it is advisable to decant the wine beforehand so that the aromas can develop optimally.

Let customers speak for us
We hebben hemmin Maastricht leren kennen en laten hem niet meer los. Een volle wijn die in balans is. We proeven zachte tonen van abrikoos en perzik maar ook de frisheid van citrus. Het beetje aards, mineralig maakt hem
Interessant.
Wij vinden hem erg lekker bij een risotto met zeevruchten.
Goede service, maar onze intercommen liggen eruit dus de bezorger kon niet bellen, toen de dichtstbijzijnde afleveradres Lidl,
Maar hele klus om zware doos te vervoeren, daarom maar een winkelwagen meegenomen.
Very tasty kosher wine, exactly my taste. Fast delivery, would definitely order again!
Een heerlijk zoete rode wijn uit Israël voor Avondmaalsvieringen. Ook lekker voor mensen die nooit drinken
Zie boven.
Het is heerlijke koshere druivensap voor Shabbat.
Habe jetzt das 2te mal hier bestellt und es lief wie beim ersten Mal alles super, danke
Schnelle Lieferung, sicher verpackt, rundum ein zuverlässiger Händler!
Empfehle ich gerne weiter.
wel even lucht geven en niet al te koud drinken. heerlijk bij de dis of tapas, maar voor zomaar ook heerlijk.
Kan bij bijna alles, maar is los ook erg lekker. (en met een zak chips -hoe oneerbieding - ook zo op) ;-)
Wel even een beetje lucht geven (goede decateren - kan een beetje droesem hebben), deze wijn is in het begin wat verlegen, maar met een beetje aanmoediging een echte gangmaker.
