Description
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 who achieved his dream of opening the most famous restaurant in Hollywood and creating his own namesake wine.
Sweet on entry, medium-to-full body, and smooth tannins, seamlessly held together by lovely acidity. Long and persistent finish.
