Vinya La Scala
The restaurant founded by Jean Leon in Beverly Hills, which gives its name to this Gran Reserva, was always a meeting place for artists and free-spirited souls.
In the artwork that illustrates the 2018 vintage, Assumpció Mateu transports us to the heart of the Mediterranean through calligraphy, symbols, and ancestral traces. A composition of deep blues and earthy tones that evokes the union between cultures and the power of what is essential, capturing the natural and spiritual richness of our surroundings.
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, resulting in an intense, complex, and elegantly structured wine, with rounded tannins, firm balance, and a long, persistent finish.
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.
Estate
Vinya La Scala holds the Single Estate Wine certification, meaning, in winemaking terms, that it is produced from a vineyard with specific features that confer unique characteristics to the wine and a microclimate that favours its maximum expression.
