This wine is produced byt eh La Motte Private Cellar, historic landmark in the Franschhoek Valley, home to South Africa's gourmet capital.  The style reflects old-world traditions skilfully harmonized with new-world intensity.

Matured in oak barrels for fourteen months to produce a full-bodied wine with cherry tobacco and dark chocolate flavours.

Alto Shiraz is an intense flavoured wine brimming with traditional Shiraz aromas. This is a well integrated wine that was aged for 18 months in small American and French oak barrels and shows excellent ageing potential. Superb on its own or with any red meat dishes.

Offering rich black cherry and raspberry flavours and floral notes, fine tannins and a mouth filling lingering complexity. Overgaauw is a wine estate of distinction situated on south facing slopes overlooking the Stellenbosch Valley. Deep granite soils and cool sea breezes enable the ideal cultivation of noble grape varieties. The resultant wines are nurtured to perfection by the inherited passion and experience of four generations of Van Velden Winemakers.
