Yesterday I participated in a group dynamic . Is one of those activities that make communication agencies to obtain the views and perceptions about products, purchase and consumption habits, etc. The truth is that it was an experience quite entertaining, I suppose it also was because the company was engaged in the sale of wines and champagnes, if it were a satellite installation company ... were nine persons ages and backgrounds who did not know very well what was going to go the meeting. It created a very relaxed from the beginning, I imagine having to talk about your tastes, interests of a sudden in front of a camera and a few strangers.
Speaking of wines, wineries and names emerged in the conversation the name of Jean Leon wine, I think that distributes the Cellar Torres, a Catalan company, known widely.
Agustà Vila recently released a documentary about the person who created the wine, " 3055 Jean Leon, a film which reveals the history of Ceferino Carrion, a Santander who changed his name to Jean Leon when he arrived in Los Angeles.
I have not seen this documentary but I have really wanted to see it to know better the history of this failed actor who after working as a taxi driver and waiter at Villa Capri, the restaurant of Frank Sinatra and Joe di Maggio, set up his own restaurant in Beverly Hills, La Scala, where Marilyn often went, Paul Newman, Warren Beaty and Zsa Zsa Gabor and others.
host His good work led him to create a warehouse for producing his own wine and be able to offer its guests. He bought some land in the Penedes and planted vines from some of the finest French wine. According to the legend of his life in his later years and suffering from cancer, filled his boat "La Scala a Mare" of bottles and sailed by sea to end his days.
