Leopard's Leap wines are distributed throughout the world and in most of your favourite cities, you should be able to find a much-loved bottle of Leopard’s Leap wine. We’ve identified some of the best cities to visit every month of the year and hope to share some food, wine and lifestyle inspiration for you to enjoy – whether you are lucky enough to travel, perhaps live in our city of choice (!) or are just packing your imaginary bags and having a jol trying some interesting food and wine combinations while broadening your cultural horizons.
In April, we’re in Amsterdam!
Do you know the song "Tulips from Amsterdam"? And yes, April is spring in Amsterdam and one of the best months to enjoy the spectacle of tulips in bloom! But there are much more to Amsterdam than windmills and flower markets. Amsterdam is a bustling cosmopolitan city, but it still has some small town charm with canals and cyclist adding serenity to the hustle and bustle of city life.
We are, of course, always thinking about food and wine and when you are in the Dutch capital, cheese is always top of mind. Gouda is what it is all about! By far the most popular cheese in the Netherlands, the quality of Dutch Gouda is exceptional, but also try Geitenkaas, Maasdammer, Nagelkaas and Edam if you are lucky enough to visit Amsterdam or if you want to add a touch of Dutch to your cheese plate at home.
WIN! You can win an amazing Amsterdam-inspired hamper with 6 of your favourite wines from our Classic Collection as well as a host of delectable Dutch goodies! Just buy any 6 bottles of Leopard's Leap wine from leopardsleap.co.za during April. (Please note, the prize can only be delivered in South Africa)

Tourists to Amsterdam are often photographed with a cone of mayonnaise drizzled fries, but of course there is so much more to Dutch cuisine.
