August 6, 2023 - My last and final tasting note of my 6th bottle of ‘08 Gloria. Similar to prior notes over the years, but slightly better. Lean, slightly austere, and a glass full of tobacco/cigar box. Lacks a central core of fruit, but still enjoyable. Not the best vintage of Gloria.

June 3, 2023 - Repeat of my 10/07/21 note. Punching way above it's weight class.

February 25, 2023 - Past it’s best. Paled in comparison to the 2012 Malartic Lagraviere we had along side.

December 17, 2022 - Dark purple. Rims a bit uneven. Nose of black fruits and berries. Taste of chocolate, coffee, berries. Medium body, good structure. Long finish.

November 11, 2022 - Not expressing any St. Julien terroir. Modern, chunky, and inelegant. Prayers this pulls together at some point but I’m not optimistic.
