Wine-making Story
La Motte is synonymous with the highest quality in wines. To carry the La Motte label, each wine has to reflect the greatest expertise in viticulture, combined with experience, passion and a creative flair in wine-making.
Grapes for the production of La Motte wines are drawn from La Motte’s estates as well as 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's wines.
The La Motte Nabot farm in the Walker Bay coastal region has been developed as an organic production operation, eliminating the use of pesticides and chemicals in viticulture. Nabot’s organically-grown grapes are reserved for the production of a Sauvignon Blanc wine.
