The Chardonnay derives from Durbanville where cooling late-afternoon breezes contribute to its elegant character. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">The Pinot Noir with its enchanting berry flavours originates from the Elgin Valley, famed for its knack with this variety. Fermented separately, both varieties were left on the lees for six weeks to ensure complexity. Blending took place before bottling under pressure with just the right concentration of carbon dioxide to ensure a fine and vivacious bubble.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Leopard&#8217;s Leap Sparkling Pomegranate Pinot Punch Recipe<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">The sparkler of choice for sultry sunsets, romantic dinners and glittering cocktails, the Leopard\u2019s Leap Sparkling Chardonnay Pinot Noir also promises to add sparkle to the mundane, mediocre and middle of the road such as date-free Friday\u2019s and sushi for singles.
