Elegant, complex, and undeniably refined, the Colonial Estate Envoy GSM 2021 is a Barossa take on the Southern Rhône style—described as “outstanding” by Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate and “silky & delectable” by Sam Kim, Wine Orbit. This European-inspired blend showcases winemaking finesse, with two-thirds of the wine undergoing French-influenced vinification, while the remainder is crafted using modern Australian techniques.
In the glass, lifted aromas of violets, red berries, black cherry, and raspberry fill the nose. The palate is driven by juicy red and dark berry fruits, with a vibrant thread of raspberry, white pepper, and spice, all wrapped in a smooth, silky finish. Despite its depth, the wine remains light on its feet, delivering complexity without heaviness.
This beautifully structured GSM pairs perfectly with duck breast in cherry glaze, lamb koftas, ratatouille, or grilled eggplant with feta, offering a versatile match to its Rhône-like character and balance.
Don’t miss your chance to explore the elegance and finesse of the Colonial Estate Envoy Barossa Valley Grenache Shiraz Mourvedre 2021—a standout example of Barossa’s modern mastery.
93 Point Rated - Sam Kim Wine Orbit
"Beautifully fruited and scented, it's delightfully fragrant on the nose with dark berry, smoky bacon, fine leather and toasted nut characters, followed by a succulent palate displaying rounded mouthfeel and supple texture. Generous and expansive with appealing savoury nuances, finishing silky and delectable. At its best: now to 2030. $35.00. "
93 Point Rated - Australian Wine Showcase Magazine
"The nose has lovely dark,, briary aromas - a good abundance of dark chocolaty flavours on the delicious, long, lingering, velvety palate."
