Château Gloria

Château Gloria boasts vineyards spread across three areas: in the heart of Beychevelle, and to the west and north of the Saint-Julien appellation.

Grown on Günzian gravel soils with a subsoil of sandy-clay gravel, Château Gloria ranks among the finest wines of the Saint-Julien appellation. The grape blend is very classic, comprising 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Petit Verdot.

A grape variety that brings color to the blends as well as added aromatic, tannic, and alcoholic richness.
