i just got a pair of dianese scouts full gortex got solid hard Armour and very good feel through the bars about 100 quid. (why so many winter gloves where your much more likely to come off omit hard Armour i do not know)

otherwise ride recommend very very highly the held twin gloves (two compartmental one for lots of warmth one for less warmth and better feel on the bar.)

the scouts tholugh have taken me over the m62 motorway peak and in the snow and the rain for 2 hours + at motorway speeds and were still lovley and warm.

only down side is there so insulative when i have the heated grips mon it takes forever for the heat to come through the glove lol. but i only really turn the grips on for a few minutes every so often hands get too hot otherwise as the glove holds all the heat.

the cuff/gauntlet o nthem is very wide with a big velcro patahc that will go over any jacket ive tried and also you can use the big velcro patch to pull it tight enough to fit under most if thats your preference.

deffo recomend forking out for a goretex glvoe it really is a big differnece plus there's a lot of uality control/warrenty for goretex stuff.

If you don't want to go heated then I can also recommend the Dianese Scouts. I've hardly had to use mine so far this winter as it's not been cold enough but they do work a treat.

Heated grips and comfortable waterproof summer gloves you have full feeling in, would be my recommendation.

Even with heated grips on I'm freezing my various hand bits in summer gloves. I do sit on the bike for 30 minutes at decent speeds though.
