Description

The Leopard's Leap Natura De-Alcoholized Sparkling Chenin Blanc offers a fresh, celebratory alternative for those looking to enjoy the character and occasion of sparkling wine with little to no alcohol. Made from Chenin Blanc, one of South Africa's signature white varieties, it combines bright fruit with lively bubbles in an easy-drinking, refreshing style.

The nose is fresh and fruit-forward, with notes of tropical fruit, white peach, pear, and citrus. On the palate, a lively sparkle brings freshness to the ripe fruit character, with crisp acidity helping to keep the wine balanced and refreshing. Light, approachable, and best served well chilled, it makes a versatile option for celebrations, brunches, and occasions where a traditional sparkling wine isn't required.

Serve chilled as an aperitif or pair with fresh fruit, summer salads, sushi, light seafood dishes, canapés, and mildly spiced cuisine.
Natura begins as a traditionally fermented Chenin Blanc wine before undergoing a de-alcoholization process, carefully removing the alcohol while retaining as much of the original wine's fruit character, freshness, and aroma as possible. The sparkling style adds further freshness and lift, creating a lighter alternative to conventional sparkling wine.

Winemaker: Eugene van Zyl
