David Franz
David Franz operates in the Barossa Valley, South Australia's premier region for bold reds and aromatic whites. The winery's Grenache Noir achieves depth and structure characteristic of the region's warm continental climate, where the variety thrives in old-vine parcels. Mataro, traditionally undervalued, emerges here with textural complexity in the Waxing Lyrical bottling. A Riesling rounds the portfolio, capturing the region's capacity for mineral-driven white wines alongside its red-wine reputation. Wine Spectator, Wine Enthusiast, Wine Advocate, and Decanter have all assessed the winery's output, reflecting the caliber of fruit and winemaking on display.
