The La Motte Méthode Cap Classique pampers the connoisseur from the first moment with its inviting aroma of citrus fruits, surrounded by nuts and brioche. The fine perlage gives the blend of Chardonnay (91%) and Pinot Noir (9%) an exciting mouthfeel and a beautiful freshness. The elegant sparkling wine, of which only 4300 bottles were produced, lay on its lees for 45 months after the second fermentation in the bottle and is an incredibly versatile food companion. Especially soft cheese, carpaccio, oysters or fish are highly recommended with La Motte Méthode Cap Classique. But you should definitely also enjoy this fine sparkling wine 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.
