Many folks ask questions about the lifespan of red wine, so i'd like to add just one of my experiences to the mix. A few weeks back I purchased a 1978 Lambert Bridge Sonoma Cty Cabernet Sauv. The $13.00 was an everyday gamble in the wine world. The result was, the wine needed many hours of "breathing", but finally "opened" into an "80" in my book. So, the moral is...explore and you will be pleasantly surprised at times.
