"One of the finest Glorias I have ever tasted,the dense ruby/purple-tinged 2005 reveals a big,sweet perfume of black olives,black cherries,cassis,spice box,and cedar.Boasting terrific fruit,medium to full-body,and more power and richness than usual,it will provide delicious drinking during its first two decades of life".
(90-92 Points).
Robert Parker. (The Wine Advocate. #170. April 2007).
"The Chateau Gloria 2005 has what you might describe as an "airy" bouquet armed with bright berry fruit,boysenberry and touches of cedar coming through atypically showy in style but there is nothing wrong with that,especially in this vintage.The palate is medium-bodied,with grainy tannin:plenty of tobacco and dried herbs infusing the black fruit with a convincing austere finish that lingers long in the mouth.Give the Gloria several years to soften.Excellent.Drink 2020-2045".

"This shows a lovely silky texture and ripe fruit ranging from plums to chocolate to toasted oak.Full-bodied,with velvety tannins and a long,rich finish.Juicy young red.Very close to 92-94".
(92 Points).
