Description
‘Executioner’ is the Judge’s take on a ‘reserve’ wine. This is the fifthrelease of this hedonistic concoction. Made up of the oldest Shiraz and
Cabernet Sauvignon plantings on the estate vineyard with a splash of Viognier. This is power, pure power. A wine of awesome splendor that is sure to please the palates of even the most discerning consumer. As the Judge has said, “it’s not for the fainthearted and if you drink a bottle of the Executioner and drive, you will surely come before the Judge.” Who needs ‘The Prisoner’ when you have ‘The Executioner?’
The grapes are picked on flavor at optimum ripeness, gently crushed and each parcel of fruit is fermented separately on skins for 5 to 7
days with controlled temperature to prevent rapid fermentation retaining fruit flavor. The finished wine is pressed off skins and stored
in seasoned oak until it has gone through malolactic fermentation, racked and sulfured and further aged for 2 years before bottling. It
spends 1 year of bottle aging prior it’s release.
The Executioner is a blend of Shiraz 55%, Cabernet Sauvignion 43% and Viognier 2% it’s produced from our premium vineyard and is our
Flag Ship wine. This wine receives 2 years of barrel aging and 1 year of bottle aging prior it’s release. The Executioner is a wine worth dying for, production is so small it’s a crime punishable by death.
