Leopard’s Leap Wines was conceptualised at the turn of the century by winemaker and businessman, Hein Koegelenberg, with guidance from his late father-in-law, internationally-renowned business leader, Dr Anton Rupert.
One of the Cape’s largest wine farms, Plaisir de Merle wines are nurtured from the cultivars that grow on the east-facing slopes of the towering, sun-shading Simonsberg.
Cabernet Sauvignon
COLOUR: Dark red BOUQUET: lots of red berrry fruit, spice, cedar and vanilla oak aromas give way to a tantalising taste
TASTE:
this full bodied Cabernet Sauvignon smacks of dark chocolate and ripe fruit which is backed by spices and soft tannins.
FOOD RECOMMENDATIONS:
this incredibly versatile varietal from the Paarl Winelands perfectly complements all red meat dishes.
The Plaisir de Merle estate classic matures well for ten-plus years.
