According to the Johnson handbook, this should have been ready to drink
in 2014. They couldn't have tasted it then.
I opened a bottle last night (bought on release) and the tannin was so
pronounced that very little fruit came through. The colour was so deep
and dense, I was reminded of the "Black wine of Cahors."
Thankfully, I don't have another bottle because at my age, I don't
think I'll be around when it would be ready to drink.

Perhaps, it could be repurposed as cooking wine?

I suppose so but I'm reluctant to do that considering the original price.
I will decant the 2nd bottle and let it sit for a couple of hours
when I get around to it.

2005 is a indeed a structured vintage. If aging isn't a real option, I think you are on right track with the decant.
