Intended to be consumed on release

[Grape Stuff]

Sheepishly I think this is kind of a dumb question, but what the heck you’re all nice people. Can wines that are "intended to be consumed on release" get any better with age? Even a little bit? Reason I ask is I've got this thing in my head that says older is better (I know vintages play a role, but I'm speaking about year in and year out consistently produced wines like a Columbia Crest Grand Estates for example), so if I had 2 side by side, and one was a 99 and other a 00, I would always choose the 99, but I don’t know if really matters.

I guess in short the question is - Do wines "intended to be consumed on release" change much over a 2-3 year period?

Thanks, hope that makes sense
