Description:
Jean Leon set sail for the USA as a stowaway from the French port of Le Havre, where he was soon discovered by a sailor who decided to help him stay hidden. This Reserva pays homage to the silent complicity of a stranger who would change Jean Leon's life forever. The restaurant founded by Jean Leon in Beverly Hills that gives its name to this Gran Reserva has always been a meeting point for artists and nonconformist souls. In this work illustrating the 2017 vintage, Gerard Sala immerses us in the beauty of our surroundings, through the natural landscape in its purest state. An explosion and perfect combination of colours full of strength, reminding us of the importance of the most essential.
A Gran Reserva certified as 'Vino de Finca Calificada', the highest distinction awarded by the Generalitat de Catalunya, and which ratifies that it comes from a vineyard with unique characteristics that give it a great singularity and a microclimate that favours its maximum expression.
Tasting Note: Dark cherry-red colour, good depth and slightly evolved variations in hue along the edges. Intense aroma of ripe and candied fruit, nuances of woodland undergrowth, tobacco and smoke imparted by the French oak barrels. Structured and lush, with a good attack, firm tannins and well-balanced tannin levels and acidity. Long in the mouth and a lingering finish.
