I would agree with the above list and you do have much time before they are released. The 2003 Vintage ports arrived only about a year ago and many of the 2003 Bordeauxs have yet to arrive. 2005 was also a very anticipated year in Bordeaux and the 1st and 2nd growth wines will be very expensive (assume $100 and up for a decent 2nd growth and many times more for a 1st growth).

Personally I would go with a Vintage Port (not a tawny or a late bottle Vintage port..must be just Vintage Port). One more suggestion to add to that is a 2005 Sauternes. These tend to age pretty well and you can get a nice one for under $80 in this vintage. They will not be released for another couple of years either.
