Colonial Estate, "Envoy", GSM Barossa Valley 2004

Red.

Light spice, slightly sour (VA?) aromas. Nothing attractive.

Round and mouth-filling, but abrasive, with a sharp acid edge that seems acetic. Definitely unpleasant, with no fruit in the mouth either.


This winery recently changed importers. As a result, I got this at half-price ($15).

Hopefully this is a bad bottle, but there is no indication of a bad cork or heat damage.
