The Story
Country: Spain Region: Penedes
Varietal: Cabernet; Petit Verdot Vintage:
Colour: Red Style: Dry
Producer: Torres
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.
Made from Cabernet Sauvignon and a small percentage of Cabernet Franc, this limited-production wine is produced from a unique 12-hectare terroir bearing the same name.
Tasting Note: A blend of quintessential Bordeaux varieties, elegant on the nose, with toasted notes and spicy undertones resulting from its ageing in oak barrels. It has a powerful attack, followed by a lengthy, full-bodied mid-palate with excellent tannins and a long, lingering finish.
