Is 97 too young to drink?

[wineguruchgo]

Anyone have any thoughts on these wines - thoughts that I should have drunk them by now or should do so now? Otherwise, I'll consider it that I should keep them laying down.

I have more that I need to add to the list - I just haven't gotten to them yet!

Any insight is appreciated.
