An accessible red that is easy to enjoy and a versatile partner for extended family meals.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Leopard\u2019s Leap Family Collection Heritage Blend<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">This blend of 78% Shiraz (Paarl), 12% Cinsaut (Darling) and 10% Grenache Noir (Bot River) also celebrates the unique and diverse terroir of the Western Cape Winelands. \u201cThis wine met all the hallmarks I believe should be reflected in a South African red blend\u201d, says Leopard\u2019s Leap CEO Hein Koegelenberg.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-82083 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Leopards-Leap-Heritag-Red-Blend-1.jpg\" alt=\"Leopards-Leap Family Collection Heritage Blend\" width=\"1000\" height=\"359\" srcset=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Leopards-Leap-Heritag-Red-Blend-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Leopards-Leap-Heritag-Red-Blend-1-300x108.jpg 300w, https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Leopards-Leap-Heritag-Red-Blend-1-940x337.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>Tasting Notes<\/h4>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">A vibrant colour in the glass, the nose offers spicy oak, vanilla, red berries and whiffs of white pepper. These charming flavours follow through on the palate for a beautifully balanced wine with a lingering finish.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Smooth, integrated tannins from well-considered oak maturation in a combination of French oak barrels, make this an approachable blend that is easy to drink at a relatively young age.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">The spicy notes and juicy red berries derived from all three varieties combine beautifully and result in the blend being a flexible food partner. With the holiday season ahead, this red will be a great choice with the complexity of flavour on a typical festive table, a popular option with red meats and barbeque flavours and served slightly chilled, a perfect daytime red.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Cellar door price:<\/b> R95 \/ bottle<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-82082\" src=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Leopards-Leap-Wine-Farm-1.jpg\" alt=\"Leopards-Leap Wine Farm\" width=\"1000\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Leopards-Leap-Wine-Farm-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Leopards-Leap-Wine-Farm-1-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Leopards-Leap-Wine-Farm-1-940x564.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">For more information on the various wines or the family-friendly offering at <a href=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/leopards-leap-launches-natura-de-alcoholised-wine-range\/\">Leopard\u2019s Leap Family Vineyards<\/a>, kindly visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.leopardsleap.co.za\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span class=\"s2\">their website<\/span><\/a> or contact 021 876 8002.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.leopardsleap.co.za\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">leopardsleap.co.za<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/LeopardsLeapWine\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Facebook<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/LeopardLeapWine\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Twitter<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/leopardsleap\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Instagram<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While the importance of family is hardly anything new, it has become a very topical subject in a year when a pandemic forced us to question our priorities.
