With its natural acidity and crisp texture, the La Motte Sauvignon Blanc pairs beautifully with seafood, light pastas, and spicy Chinese and Thai dishes. This white wine also goes extremely well with bold seasonings and salty appetizers, such as pre-dinner canapés. It’s a natural partner to goat cheese and makes for a refreshing aperitif on its own.
A variety of soil types and clones are represented, with each vineyard growing in its own microclimate. All the vineyards are trellised according to the Perold system and are managed to maintain the perfect balance between leaf coverage and yield. Thanks to the diversity in terroir, each area produces distinctive grapes that contribute unique flavor and structure.
