A beautiful red from St-Julien from the historic `82 vintage and now drinking beautifully. Boasting cassis richness, with herbal and cedar complexity. Here is a beautiful, traditionally Cabernet-Sauvignon dominant Bordeaux blend.

Vinous
The 1982 Gloria, which would have been vinified in large wood tanks and a few epoxy-lined steel tanks, is a vintage that I have not tasted for many years. It is showing some bricking on the rim. The nose is fully mature with red fruit, mushroom, sous-bois and fennel, open and slightly rustic, yet charming. The palate is again, fully mature with supple tannins, rustic and a bit meaty in style. Orange rind, mushroom and a touch of truffle towards the finish, though based on this showing, I would drink in the near future. Neal Martin27th September 2022
