How to Select Wine

We at Leopard's Leap understand that the first thing the everyday consumer looks for when selecting wine is price. That is why we pride ourselves on producing excellent quality wine at affordable price points. After you have an idea of how much you are willing to spend on wine, the next step in the selection process is your wine preference, and the occasion. These days, traditional ‘rules’ about enjoying wine in certain situations are largely defunct, so don’t think that you necessarily have to enjoy white wine in summer, or red wine with red meat. Personal preference is about what you enjoy.

For people not accustomed to heavier-bodied or complex wine, a Merlot may be a good wine to start with. Sauvignon Blanc and Chenin Blanc are also easy-drinking wines that suit almost any occasion.
