3055 CHARDONNAY

A young, fresh and bold Chardonnay varietal from vines planted in our vineyards in 1991. 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.

Wine Concept

A bright, fresh and fruity wine for a modern palate.  Made from Chardonnay grapes grown on our estate. Characterized by very intense notes of tropical fruit and a long, lingering finish.  Fresh on the palate, long and elegant in the mouth with a balanced, lively finish.
