The La Motte Millennium pours into the glass in an intense dark red. The grape varieties Merlot (48%), Cabernet Franc (37%), Malbec (10%) and Petit Verdot (5%) give this popular red wine its distinctive character. Aromatic dark berries meet plums and spicy nuances, skilfully rounded off by a nice toffee note. Well-integrated and soft tannins provide a pleasant mouthfeel and linger long on the palate. The grape varieties were first aged individually for twelve months in French oak and then blended. Enjoy the classic blend best with dark meat or spicy food in a creamy sauce or with a nice cheese platter. But you should definitely also try the La Motte Millennium neat.

La Motte from the Rupert Family

In 1970, Dr Anton Ruper, an art lover and international businessman with a passion for nature conservation, purchased the Franschhoek wine farm, La Motte. The farm has a rich French Huguenot history with Gabriel du Toit planting the first vines in 1752. Today, the estate belongs to Dr Rupert’s daughter, Hanneli Rupert-Koegelenberg and together with her husband and CEO of the estate, Hein Koegelenberg, they have turned La Motte into an internationally respected wine producer and popular wine tourism destination.
