Special Syrah Tasting at La Motte



As part of Shiraz South Africa's week-long celebration of Shiraz, La Motte will offer a special Syrah tasting as part of its regular line-up in the estate's Tasting Room.

The La Motte Syrah Tasting will consist of four wines presented by one of the estate's well-informed and enthusiastic Wine Tasting Ambassadors, showcasing the diversity and versatility of this exceptional variety.

2009 La Motte Shiraz

Hailed as an exceptional South African vintage, 2009 produced some beautiful red wines. The 2009 La Motte Shiraz received recognition with gold medals in the Veritas Awards, Concours Mondial de Bruxelles as well as the China Wine and Spirits competition. It also received a four and a half star John Platter rating and was acknowledged as one of the Top 100 Wines of South Africa.

2016 La Motte Syrah

Years of experience in producing this variety enabled La Motte to capture juicy berry-fruit, sweet liquorice, violet flowers and pepper spice from this wine's Franschhoek terroir. Traditionally a very bold variety, this rewarding Syrah has been refined into a medium-bodied, highly accessible wine.

2016 Pierneef Syrah Viognier

This red-and-white blend with its rich, fruity style balances the structure and spice of Syrah with subtle floral nuances from the Viognier. A versatile partner on the dinner table,  the wine has exceptional maturation potential and has received acclaim as one of South Africa's Top 100 Wines with Gold Medals from Veritas, China Wine & Spirits Awards and Gilbert & Gaillard International Challenge. The 2016 vintage also received Double Platinum recognition in the National Wine Challenge.

2013 Hanneli R

Only produced in exceptional vintages, the limited release Hanneli R combines a special vintage with 40 months of wood maturation for a wine of exceptional depth, complexity and personality. 

Visit the La Motte Tasting Room from Monday, 10 June to Saturday, 15 June 2019 between 09:00 and 16:30 and ask for the La Motte Syrah Tasting.
