Groot Constantia
In 1679 Simon van der Stel was appointed by the Dutch East India Company to govern the Cape of Good Hope. After years of loyal service he requested land from the Company. He periodically sent out riders to collect soil samples. In 1685 he chose 891 morgen (about 763 ha) situated behind Table Mountain for its wine-growing potential and magnificent scenery. Over the years the wines produced on the estate caught the attention of influential people across the globe – clearly due to its impressive quality. Global aristocracy made sure that they had enough stock of this acclaimed and precious product. Our founder named his farm Constantia after the Latin word for constancy or steadfastness. These attributes he valued greatly and today we follow in his footsteps to uphold his enduring legacy of perfection at Groot Constantia.
Description
The 2021 vintage of Groot Constantia's Lady of Abundance is a complex blend that showcases ripe plum and red cherry flavors, complemented by subtle hints of fennel and well-integrated oak. On the palate, these fruit flavors persist, framed by a fine tannin structure, leading to a smooth and lingering finish.
Food Pairing
Lady of Abundance pairs excellently with rare roast beef accompanied by mustard and garlic dressing, roast vegetables, or flame-grilled venison served with grilled root vegetables.
