Description

For a well-priced Saint-Julien, look to Château du Glana. Omitted in the famous 1855 classification, its fine wines present excellent value and in the late-to-blossom 2014 vintage, even more so. Mature, layered and complex red fruit

.

Château du Glana is a well-placed Saint-Julien estate, sitting pretty between the villages of Beychevelle and Saint-Julien, opposite the second growth Ducru-Beaucaillou. It has a long history dating back to 1870. The Meffre family acquired it in the 1960s, carrying out extensive renovations first in 1968 and in the early noughties. It started with just 5 hectares, but today, with acquisitions over the decades, has an extensive 59 hectares, with ideal gravelly soils, nearly all of it a continuous, single plot.

Consultant in 2014 was the late, renowned Denis Dubourdieu, who insisted on an elegant, expressive style, vinified in cement vats and aged just 40% in new oak. The 2014 is drinking very well now and over the next decade.
