jammy jammy jammy; great fruit nose. on the first glass after pop n pour, the jam aroma is an amazing raspberry/strawberry mix and taste was mostly dark berry and cherries. tannins were a bit overbearing at first, but the second glass w/about 20 minutes out of the bottle was deep with cola taking over the palate and the tannins cooling off a bit. stayed jammy throughout the bottle, was best between 30 minutes to 2 hours out of the bottle then kind of faded away after that.
