It's getting old, unfortunately, which is most evident by the out-of-balance bitter notes.
However, after more than two-hours of decanting it smooths out partially revealing its previous beauty

This was a revelation, after the 2012, which I found to be really nothing special, this was superb, reminded me of Kongsgaard, though not quite as good. This was complex and had a great weight in the mouth and was thoroughly delicious. There was peach, tangerine and apricot. Acidty was good, providing lift. Long finish. Drinking perfectly now as this will shortly show tertiary caramel - of which there was just the slightest hint with this bottle.

This is very nice. Needed 30 mins to burn off the heavyness. From there it delivered excellent chard, fresh, full but balanced. Drink now-1yr. Dont see upside from here.
