Deep dark color with a lovely refreshing red tint.  Sexy and sleek with oodles of pure black fruit.  Good dollops of spice well, supported with some lovely soft supple tannins.  An explosion of fruit, on a medium bodied palate with good complexity and length. Drinking already nicely now, but with good building components to improve the next 4 – 5 years.

La Motte produces one organically grown wine namely Pierneef Sauvignon Blanc.  This wine is from the Walker Bay region and not from Franschhoek.  The La Motte farm in Franschhoek has been certified as Organically Grown, a few weeks ago.

The 2008 Sauvignon Blanc is a part of the ultra premium range which is a tribute to South African artist Jacob Hendrik Pierneef (1886-1957) famous for his mastership in portraying the unadorned beauty of the South African landscape and its architecture.  Each new release in the range reflects a different piece of the Pierneef art on the label.  

This is a perfect wine with salads, sea food, sea food pasta and spicy foods such as Thai dishes.
