While its picturesque Franschhoek Valley setting is an artwork in itself, La Motte Wine Estate invites those who appreciate the finer things in life to visit the estate for a wonderful sensory experience – whether you enjoy the visual arts, culinary creativity, music or of course, the art of winemaking!
THREADS OF SYNERGY – A NEW EXHIBITION OF SOUTH AFRICAN TAPESTRY ART OPENS AT LA MOTTE
In a world where disembodied virtual experiences have become the order of the day, Threads of Synergy – a new exhibition of South African tapestry art in the La Motte Museum – pays homage to the artisans’ presence in the making. This exhibition of large-scale tapestries calls for a tactile encounter, regaining sensitivity towards surfaces and reawakening our sense of touch. Visit the exhibition from Tuesday to Sunday, 09:00 – 17:00. Entrance is free.
The Threads of Synergy Tapestry Exhibition extends to weekly art experiences and Winelands-inspired weaving tapestry workshops starting in October.
THE ART OF WINEMAKING
Renowned for its quality wine portfolio, La Motte wines are elegant and beautiful to enjoy on their own or as a versatile partner to food. Enjoy one of the estates curated wine tasting experiences – including special releases, older vintages from the Rupert Vinoteque or even a Varietal Glass-specific tasting!
CULINARY CREATIVITY
Celebrating South Africa’s culinary heritage, Pierneef à La Motte Restaurant has introduced a more relaxed format and a lunchtime à la carte menu treating guests to comfort food and hearty favourites with a modern interpretation. With its refined and calm ambience perfect for extended lunch hours, Chef Eric Bulpitt’s food is moreish and satisfying, but not without a chef’s touch! Indulge your sweet tooth with a trip down memory lane – desserts and treats from the Farm Shop revealing a legacy of nostalgic sweets in a way that charms and comforts.
