Description

A magnum bottle of 1982 Château Gloria from Bordeaux's Saint-Julien appellation, from 44 hectares of vineyards planted with 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc and 5% Petit Verdot.

There is no ABV stated on the label.

'A marvellous showing for Gloria abounding with fragrance; rose petals, smoked bacon, sweet tobacco, cherries, crushed strawberries and dried flowers. Peppy and bright on the palate, very St-Julien in character, high acidity with a crushed stone texture, fine tannins and quite a sharp tang on the back. While it doesn't carry as much fullness and power as some in the tasting, this also doesn't seem as old as some, with an appealing, bright and controlled palate still full of energy and spark. Likely to still be relatively good value if seeking out today. 92/100' Georgie Hindle, Decanter, 2023

Condition

Please see images for fill level and label condition. Note general wear. Note damage to the label.

The Whisky.Auction team has inspected this lot and found it to be suitable for sale. However, please note the absence of a condition statement does not imply that this lot is in perfect condition or free from wear and tear, imperfections or the effects of ageing. We cannot guarantee that the contents of this bottle will be free from the effects of age, cork taint, oxidation or other faults. Older bottles often contain sediment. Wines are more fragile than spirits and older wines may be listed, at our discretion, for their historical interest rather than their drinkability. We can in no way guarantee that they are still within their plateau of maturity or to the buyer’s taste.

This bottle does not appear to be leaking. While we take every care to pack bottles securely we cannot guarantee that old corks and closures will not leak in transit.
