Jean Leon Vinya Le Havre

Tasting Note

In the glass, it displays a stately and commanding presence, revealing a deep, intense cherry-red color with a high coat and vibrant garnet reflections on the rim that speak of its magnificent extraction. The nose unfolds an elegant, evolving aromatic tale; ripe dark fruits like blackberries, blueberries, and prunes merge seamlessly with complex spicy hints of black peppercorn and clove. This core bouquet gently opens up to a fine array of toasted cocoa, ground coffee beans, noble oak, and a distinctive Mediterranean scrubland balsamic backdrop. On the palate, it is powerful, broad, and flawlessly balanced. The entry is robust yet incredibly velvety, leading into a voluminous mid-palate where ripe, polished tannins provide an enviable silky texture. A fresh and well-integrated acidity structures the wine toward an remarkably long, elegant finish, leaving persistent trails of jammy black fruits and noble toasted wood notes.
