Spanish immigrant Jean Leon enjoyed a rags-to-riches story when he arrived in the US, starting as a taxi driver in New York before opening the iconic Hollywood restaurant La Scala. His legacy extends to his eponymous wines, with the organic 3055 range named after the licence number of the cab he drove in NYC. This a bright and fruity blend of Merlot and Petit Verdot, packed with blueberry and cherry notes on the nose and palate. Juicy and quaffable, with fresh acidity, a lick of spice and gentle tannins.
