Vinous, 96 points: The 2016 Gloria is one of the undisputed stars of this vintage. Rich, deep and explosive, the 2016 possesses tremendous intensity in all of its dimensions. Sweet red cherry, tobacco, menthol, licorice and dried rose petal...
jamessuckling.com, 100 points: The nose is phenomenal with perfect aromas of Cabernet Sauvignon with currant bush, blackberries and minerals. A pure expression of Cab. The palate is perfect with a full body, but has perfectly integrated tannins with a...

Wine Spectator, 99 points: (WS96-99 points) This packs some serious punch and drive, with a terrific core of blueberry, açai and plum reduction notes, backed by waves of graphite and roasted apple wood. Has the pleasantly chewy feel typical of...
Wine Enthusiast, 95 points: This rich, full wine shows the chateau to be at the top of its form. It’s finely balanced, pushing both its fruit and acidity, with the tannins taking the supporting role. With its power leashed, this shows the stylish...

jebdunnuck.com, 97 points: I absolutely loved the 2015 Léoville-Barton and this has everything you could want from a Left Bank Bordeaux. Cassis, smoked earth, graphite, tobacco leaf, and thrilling amounts of minerality all emerge from this inky...
Wine Spectator, 94 points: Sappy with lots of kirsch violet and red currant notes. Very lively acidity drives the finish. Tightly wound for a second wine with serious acidity. Tasted non-blind. -J.M.
Wine Enthusiast, 94 points: This tastes of great Cabernet Sauvignon, with its black currant, cedar and herbs and fresh, juicy acidity. It is as fresh as it is rich, but it has a structure of dense tannins that balances the wine. This is one of the...
jamessuckling.com, 94 points: The smoky oak, full body and chunky tannins make a bold statement; indeed, the wine has plenty of flesh and packs a big tannic punch on the finish. Best Talbot in years. Drink in 2023.
Wine Enthusiast, 97 points: The wine is immensely dark powered by black plum and a ripe complex structure. Already the elements are molding into place. Expect great things of this wine. - R.V.
