Ditching alcohol during January has become a trend. Celebrate a sober you with this ginger ale and de-alcolised mocktail, developed by Leopard’s Leap.

This Blue Hurricane wine cocktail is going to whisk you away and make you want to pull out the lawn chair, find some sun and bask the day away. 

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. Bringing families together around good food and wine is one of the passions of the Leopard’s Leap wine brand as well as Leopard’s Leap Family Vineyards in Franschhoek. This sentiment is also at the heart of the newly introduced Leopard’s Leap Family Collection Heritage Blend. An accessible red that is easy to enjoy and a versatile partner for extended family meals.

This year we might have to rethink how we do gettogethers. Perhaps we feel safer in the open air and perhaps our budgets only allow for something as basic as a hotdog. But whether it is a year-end event, office party, birthday bash or holiday do, use our sausage and sauce combos for a party with pizzazz! 

It’s hard to beat the classic combination of a proper Frankfurter on a bun with mustard, but do try adding some pickled cucumber or go for a tangy apple sauce! Both sauces are delicious and the versatile Leopard’s Leap Shiraz is a cool companion to this pumped-up hotdog.

The Leopard’s Leap South African Table presents guests with the opportunity to taste authentic South African dishes and to learn more about the food heritage while sharing a meal.

While many might think that 2020 is way too stressful to survive participating in Sober October, there might be ways to go without your favourite glass of wine! One of them is to enjoy our Natura De-alcoholised Classic White or Red or to try it in one of our delicious mocktails – such as our latest Cheeky Peach mocktail!

Leopard’s Leap has recently been acknowledged as an honouree in the 2020 Wine & Food Tourism Awards for its Authentic South African Experience. While it is especially the interactive Leopard’s Leap South African Table that celebrates our country’s food and wine heritage, it is also the warm hospitality, informal and welcoming ambience, proudly South African wines and incorporating traditional South African cooking traditions and food styles, that makes Leopard’s Leap Family Vineyards a must-visit on any Franschhoek Valley itinerary.

A mocktail recipe that make skipping alcohol easy.

Pap is a South African staple. Much more than a traditional breakfast, this polenta-like dish is often enjoyed with meat and sauce, whether it is a juicy onion and tomato stew or another South African favourite, chakalaka.
