Critics Ratings

'The 2012 Old Vine Series 'T Voetpad is a field blend of grape varieties that were planted between 1900 and 1928. The nose is quite closed at first and demands patience, reluctantly revealing scents of wild heather, undergrowth and a touch of honeysuckle. The palate is well-balanced with yellow plum, orange zest and dried honey on the entry. It is very harmonious with superbly judged acidity that infuses so much tension that it errs toward a Riesling in style, as if the 'T Voetpad cherry-picks the best from each grape variety. It is blessed with a wonderful, vivacious finish of white peach, Clementine and yellow plum on the long waxy-textured finish. This is another exceptional addition to the Old Vine Series.' - Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, 96/100 (Oct 2013)

'Semillon, Chenin, Palomino, and Muscat d'Alexandrie all from a tiny 106-year-old vineyard, fermented together. Scents of poached apple, an intriguing fennel note, but 2012's flavours are a zesty mix of passionfruit and melon, sleek and tightly focused.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2014, 4.5*
