It is the utmost expression of the Cabernet Sauvignon variety, aged and evolved to perfection. This intense and complex wine presents a good tannic structure with a long and persistent finish.

This Gran Reserva, the winery's most prized wine, is named after the restaurant founded by Jean Leon in Beverly Hills. It is the bottled essence of Jean Leon's dreams. A Gran Reserva certified as a ‘Single Vineyard Wine’, the highest distinction granted by the Government of Catalonia, which verifies its origin from a unique plot planted in 1963. A singular vineyard whose microclimate and clay-limestone soils allow the cabernet sauvignon to express its full potential

Jean Leon wines were the precursors of what we now call Chateau or Single Vineyard wines. In 2008 the Jean Leon winery began applying organic farming methods and from the 2012 vintage onwards all of their wines have been labelled as certified organic. Jean Leon entrusted his legacy to the Torres family in 1994 and since then the winery has stayed true to the philosophy of its founder and kept fighting tirelessly for his dreams.
