A solid vintage of Chateau Gloria. 05s are starting to drink quite nicely.

Never connected with Gloria and have had a lot of misses. This wine was thoroughly outclassed by the other wines of the night

Drinking very nicely right. Consider decanting 2 hours in advance. Should still be in the game for 5-10 more years. 2005 vintage.

Yep. This will be great in 6-10 years! Glad I bought a case on release.

Good integration texture and freshness at this point. Improved significantly after an hour in the decanter. Other notes for 2005 seem unfairly critical. I think will improve in coming years.

Classic claret that is approaching the start of the days where 15 years of patience come to glory

A very nice surprise. Didn't know the house, but it came as a smooth taste, delicate grape flavour mixed with berries and a slight fruity feeling along with the dryness of a hight spirited wine. Served at about 12 degrees celcius in the warm humid weather of Acapulco, an excelent choice for a a festive after meal delight.
