2011 Tomich Hill Adelaide Hills Vin Gris Rose

This Rose is a dark, tawny pink salmon in colour. It smells of strawberries and tastes of tomatoes. It's very dry and very savoury. The black labels look impressive against the salmon wine. A smart label, too: Tomich and Hill are co-joined through a long, tall 'i' that goes through the middle of the two names. It is not surprising that such a good Rose is based on Pinot Noir. Nor it is surprising that it is a wild ferment wine produced organically. $22.99 from the Nevana Cellars, Campbell Parade, North Bondi.
