La Motte Wine Estate

Situated in the beautiful Franschhoek Valley, La Motte is one of South Africa’s traditional wine estates. Home to the finest wines, the estate’s collection of classic varieties and innovative blends are recognised internationally for their exceptional quality. With its picturesque setting and historic charm, La Motte is an enchanting wine tourism destination.
