Château du Glana - Saint-Julien - Red - 2006 :

 

Château Du Glana: The Quintessential Saint-Julien Claret

Château Du Glana is a consistently excellent Cru Bourgeois, perfectly positioned in the heart of Saint-Julien, adjacent to the most prestigious Classified Growths. Grown on deep Garonne gravel, this wine perfectly embodies the balance and classic structure of the appellation, often described as the 'archetypal Englishman's Claret'.

Tasting Notes (Sommelier Profile)

• Colour: A deep, attractive garnet with purple edges.
• Nose: Intense and complex, revealing classic Médoc aromas of cassis, black cherry, dried tobacco leaf, and a hint of cedar from careful oak ageing.
• Palate: Elegant and medium-to-full-bodied, showcasing a velvety texture and a core of ripe, silky tannins. The finish is long and persistent, delivering outstanding complexity and cellar potential.

Pairing & Serving

We recommend decanting for at least an hour and serving at a cool cellar temperature (16-18°C). A truly sophisticated wine, ideal for traditional roast dinners and classic game dishes.
