Translation missing: en.Tasting notes
The Leopard's Leap Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot is a harmonious cuvée that combines the best characteristics of both grape varieties. The wine presents itself with a well-defined, round and elegant structure, characterized by lush red berry aromas and juicy tannins. The interplay of the two grape varieties leads to a soft, lingering finish that rounds off the enjoyment.


Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot
In this cuvée, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot complement each other to create a structured yet supple red wine. Cabernet Sauvignon often contributes blackcurrant , supporting acidity and pronounced tannins; Merlot addsplum and ripe cherry , fills out the body and softens the overall impression with usually gentler tannins and more moderate acidity. This brings together generous fruit and accessibility with a firm backbone. Above all, the acidity and tannin structure can, with sufficient concentration and suitable Aged, allow for good ageing potential .
The combination is classic in Bordeauxand also well established in many other wine regions, such as California and South Africa. Depending on the climate and Aged, the style ranges from fresh and linear to bold and full-bodied, with possible herbal, cedar and toasty notes. In the glass, it usually shows a deep ruby red. It pairs well with roasted meat, hearty vegetable dishes and mature cheese.
