Vinous

The 2024 Gloria is soft, fruity and very easy to like. Sweet red cherry/plum fruit, rose petal, lavender and mocha are nicely pushed forward. Gloria is very nicely balanced. It's a real charmer in 2024. 04/2025

The 2024 Gloria has a light nose with blackberry, leather and loamy aromas that require a bit of coaxing from the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with rigid tannins, moderate depth, gentle grip and a slightly blocky finish. It's not close to the peaks that Gloria can achieve (and there have been several in recent years), but this is a swarthy Saint-Julien that should mellow with bottle age. 04/2025

Robert Parker/Wine Advocate

Aromas of blackberries, cassis and toasty oak introduce the 2024 Gloria, a medium-bodied, lively wine built around youthfully chalky tannins. 04/2025

Based on 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, with the rest Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, the 2024 Château Gloria reveals rock-solid cassis, graphite, smoky tobacco, and nicely integrated oak notes. Medium-bodied and beautifully balanced, with a slightly modern style, it has pure fruit, fine tannins, and a great finish. 05/2025

A solid, textural and well-structured red with dark plums and warm spices on the nose. It’s medium-bodied with fine, firm tannins. Juicy with some chocolate influence. Medium finish. 04/2025
