Product Overview
Winery's Notes:
"Much thought has gone into making improvements over the past several years and the vineyard has been entirely renovated. Château Du Glana produces modern elegant wines of character reflecting the estate’s superb terroir. The estate’s completely restored buildings (vat room, grape reception area, ageing cellar, offices, and reception room), the immense care taken in the vineyard, and precious winemaking advice from Professor Denis Dubourdieu provide a sound equilibrium between modern methods and respect for tradition. Château Du Glana is thus a well balanced, velvety, and complex wine enjoyable young, but also with excellent ageing potential (over ten years)."

90+ Points - Wine Advocate
"Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2015 du Glana is scented of black currants, black berries and mulberries with touches of beef, cigar box and menthol. The palate is medium to full-bodied with firm, chewy tannins and a good fruit core, finishing long." -LPB, 2/16/18
88 Points - Wine Spectator
"Offers good typicity, with a cassis and bitter plum core lined with light iron and charcoal notes. Ends with a touch of pleasant austerity through the finish. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Best from 2019 through 2022. 12,000 cases made, 800 cases imported." -JM, 2018
