We drank a bottle about 15 months ago, and I opined that I should have decanted it longer. I took my own advice, and (as luck would have it) I was right ;-) Rather deeper fruitiness, more "sweet" spiciness, and more body after more than a year, and then letting it take in air for a couple of hours. Those who still have this in their cellars might get another couple of years out of this, but give it plenty of air when you open it. This is NOT a pop-and-pour!

A bit on the dry side, although still pretty fruity. Likely that this was not decanted long enough. We'll do better with our other bottle.
