David Franz Shiraz ‘Benjamin’s Promise’

The palate is rich, dark, and generously layered, opening with blackberry, plum compote, and dark cherry. The fruit feels ripe and plush, moving across the palate with a smooth, velvety weight. A core of warm spice, cocoa, and subtle earthiness adds depth through the mid‑palate, giving the wine a savoury counterpoint to its dark fruit. The tannins are fine, rounded, and gently chewy, offering structure without interrupting the wine’s flow. The finish is long, warm, and dark‑fruited, tapering with notes of black plum, mocha, and soft pepper spice, leaving a sense of richness and quiet power.
