As people familiar with La Motte will know we have a strong affiliation with South African artist Jacob Hendrik Pierneef (1886 – 1957). Many of his original works hang on the walls of la Motte and his art is carried on the back label of our premium Pierneef range of wine. Today was his birthday and we celebrated it at La Motte as we worked on the final preparations for the opening of our new restaurant that will be named in his honour and a museum that will showcase his work.
