Agree with WOW. I'm not sure if you want to taste an older wine with a current vintage from the same producer, or if you want a wine you can buy two bottles of now, try one, and lay the other down. One you can do the latter with is Chateau Les Fiefs de Lagrange. This is the second label of Chateau Lagrange a "Third Growth" Bordeaux from St Julien. St Juliens are primarily cabernet sauvignon. Les Fiefs with run you $15 or less per bottle. If can pick up two 2000's you could try one now, make notes, and have the second on in '08 or '09. Then compare your notes. You could repeat the process with other wines every year, so each year in the future there would be something new and something old. As you mature in your wine drinking and your success in life, you could eventually buy cases of wine that can mature, and try a bottle every couple of years until you feel it is maxed, and then finish the case.
