Single piece cork, no sign of seepage. Excellent fill level, no sieving necessary. Decanted and tasted over 3h. Toffee and viscous texture. Some freshness despite the nose suggesting a dead wine. Agree with previous TN, is on mature plateau, and it could be stable for a long time before the first signs of decline are consistent.
To be enjoyed from 2025 to 2032 IMHO, tasting well now.

A private dinner (Scharzhof, Wiltingen, Germany): Deep golden colour, rich and nutty, sherried but not maderised or oxidised, rounded and even oily in texture, spicy depth, citrus freshness on the palate, excellent persistence.

Dark mature and toasted caramel and honey flavours. Delicious but could drink over coming decade. No signs of decline.
