Tasting Notes 
Notes of cassis and black cherry with subtle sweet oak spice and graphite open on the palate with opulent layers of cocoa, black cherry and resinous tannin. The immediate fruitfulness and polish of this wine makes it a pleasure to drink early, but make no mistake there is structure to age. A sub-$50 bottle of wine that drinks like a $75 bottle.

"The 2023 Rocky Pond Estate Winery 11 Dams Red Wine from Rocky Reach is composed of 64% Cabernet Sauvignon, 19% Merlot, 12% Malbec and 4% Cabernet Franc. Aromatically, it balances concentrated blackberry preserves, black cherry, and cedary herbs with savory layers of smoke brisket and a smooch of spice on the palate, the texture glides effortlessly, carrying flavorsof black plum, raspberry coulis, and subtle dried herbs. Polished acidity and supple tannins bring a refreshing finish." - 93pts. International Wine Report
 
 
"The 2023 Eleven Dams is understated in the glass, showing nuances of crushed blackberr and mint with a citrus tinge. Streamlined, it races across the palate with polished red and black fruits supported by brisk acidity. Firming tannins add form through the long finish as a sweet herbal resonance lingers" - 91pts.
