The Groot Constantia Lady of Abundance replaces Groot Constantia's popular red wine cuvée Rood, although this is still the same wine and only the name has changed. Lady of Abundance presents itself immensely complex and generous with a seductively fruity bouquet of ripe black fruits - aromas of ripe plums and red cherries conquer the senses here with a subtle hint of fennel and delicate hints of oak. The palate also reveals nuances of black plums and dark cherries, which are underpinned by a fine tannin structure and finish with perfect oak notes and stunning balance in a long-lasting and pleasantly soft finish.

The grapes were hand-picked and fermented separately with regular pumping over of the must in stainless steel tanks. After the alcoholic fermentation was completed, the wines were aged separately for 12 months in a combination of French oak barrels, of which 10% were new wood, 35% were second growth, 35 were riding wood, and 20% were fourth growth. At the end of the 12 months of aging, the best barrels were blended and the cuvée was bottled.
