Inside Bordeaux
Soft through the mid palate, drink over the next five years to maximise the attractive brambled fruits. This is gentle and unfussy, a good 2013 that has some St Julien character, but stands as an outlier in this excellent Gloria lineup, a reflection of the challenging conditions of the year. 40% new oak. Harvest entirely in October, from 2 to 15, with a yield of 39hl/h. Remi di Constanzo technical director.

The 2013 Gloria perhaps does not quite have the same charm as the 2013 Saint-Pierre: a little backward, lacking a sense of lift and perfume. The palate is medium-bodied with a saline entry, the tannins harder than Saint Pierre with a simple, earthy finish that needs more fruit intensity. Tasted twice, once at the property, the second example demonstrated a little more freshness, but otherwise I might be inclined to opt for Saint-Pierre in this vintage.
