Jean Leon 3055 Merlot / 2021 / 75cl

Made from Merlot vines planted in Jean Leon vineyards in 1997 and a small percentage of Petit Verdot.  A youthful interpretation of the winery’s most complex reds.  The number 3055 refers to Jean Leon’s New York cab license and reveals the man behind the legend: the humble beginnings of an idealist whose almost absurdly varied life saw him avoid the draft, escape Franco, befriend Marilyn Monroe, not to mention achieving his dream of opening the most famous restaurant in Hollywood and creating his own namesake wine.

A wine characterized by immense freshness and elegance, violet notes, spicy character and a long aftertaste.
