Foster e Rocco Rosé 2011

(Heathcote) $27; 12.8%

4.5/5

I opened up a few rosés with friends recently – the way rosé should be consumed – and this was the group’s unanimous favourite. Complex aromas of citrus blossom, cherry, strawberry and Turkish delight lead to a fine mix of concentrated savoury, spice and berry flavours. It’s textural, with grippy tannins and citrus-flavoured acidity that’s dry and refreshing. The wine has pretty decent length for a rosé, with strawberry, rose petal and cinnamon flavours to the fore.
