I got to try this at a scotch tasting next to the 12 year Tomatin, and it is a marked improvement. The time spent in the port casks really helps bring some complexity to this whisky.
The nose is light with sweet fruit, lemon, berries, and honey. The sweet fruit flavor continues on the palate, but develops more grape notes with some brown sugar. The palate is very similar to the 12 year but with more complexity. The finish is spicier than you'd expect, with a ginger flavor.
If you enjoy Tomatin 12 and Dualchas, you will enjoy the 14 year as well. However, for near the same price you can usually find the Tomatin cask strength which has even stronger complex flavors, and I think is a much better value.
