ABOUT La Motte
La Motte is among the finest of South African estates, situated in the spectacular Franschoek Valley and tracing its storied roots back to the 17th Century.
La Motte is reknowned for consistently producing quality, award-winning wines, drawing grapes from the La Motte estates in Franschoek and Walker Bay, alongside other farms in the Cape Winelands. Thanks to the variety in terroirs, grapes from each region make a unique contribution to the flavour components of La Motte wines.

The unique charm of La Motte’s wines comes from the character bestowed upon them by particular soil types and a moderate climate, creating growing conditions that favour the finest grapes.
Great grapes make great wine
Edmund Terblanche, La Motte’s award-winning cellarmaster, believes that the first priority in wine-making is to make the most of what the grape offers naturally. Individual care is taken with the hand-selection of berries and well-considered barrel maturation.
