Jeppe, I tasted this at a friend's house a few months ago. It showed well without decanting; however, someone else present had recently had a bad experience with the same wine and we got into a discussion of whether or not the problem/damage was importer-based (can't recall the other name that came up, but the bottle we enjoyed was Kacher). So I just checked cellartracker on your behalf to see what other recent notes say, and reports over the past six months reflect about the greatest diversity of bottle variation I've ever seen on any wine: everything but divine to disgusting, and all stops in between. Your bottles are definitely ready to drink--hopefully, though, you've got good bottles. Sorry for the bad news; better have backups ready just in case.
My wine shopping and I have never had a problem. Just a perpetual race between the bankruptcy court and Hell.--Rogov
