Hi Mike, I'm always cautious about decant times for old wines, this is now 12 years old although "younger" as it's a magnum.
I assume it will be consumed over dinner so therefore will have further time to develop in the decanter and glass/es so I'd be only giving it an hour to settle then see what hapens during dinner. If you've decanted carefully you can always give it "extra" air time by shaking up the decanter.
Be keen to hear how it goes, I've had more 93 JRs than 93 Blacks in recent times. Expect it will show well.
