    Thanks, Kwispedoor. That explains that price discrepancy between US retail and cellar-door 🙂

    Kwispedoor: Where is it possible to buy the ‘T Voetpad 2015 in SA? (I live in the US now, but may visit SA soon, and would like to grab a bottle when I’m there if possible!)

      Unfortunately only from private collectors, I think Joe. It sells out within about a week at most from release every year if you consider all the possible buying options. And getting a private collector that will part with them will be tricky.

    The ranking of those two wines made no sense to me, until I saw that the ‘T Voetpad goes for $67 in the States. Thank you Eben for making the wine affordable to Saffer wine lovers!
