The La Motte Winemaking team is delighted to announce the excellent Double Gold performance of the 2019 La Motte Sauvignon Blanc in the Michelangelo International Wine and Spirits Awards.

“Acclaimed for its consistent quality and exceptional versatility, we are honoured to receive such recognition for the current vintage”, says La Motte CEO Hein Koegelenberg.

Always an exciting choice, with this quality recognition as well as a subtle update to its elegant packaging, the 2019 La Motte Sauvignon Blanc promises to be a popular option this summer – both as an aperitif and dinner table companion.

The 2019 vintage is made from Sauvignon Blanc grapes originating from Franschhoek, Stellenbosch and the Cape South Coast. The addition of 8% Semillon enhances the complexity and maturation potential. Light straw in colour, the nose offers abundant gooseberries and complementing lemon and tropical notes. The palate is very polished and silky with a juicy finish that lingers with exceptional freshness.
