to drink or not to drink these bordeaux?

[newsguy]

i recently purchased 6 aged/somewhat aged bordeaux through the tsunami disaster relief action. they arrived today, having been sent overnight via fed ex from the east coast of florida. bottles are plenty cold and i stood them upright immediately (at about 2 p.m.) my question: would this saturday night be too early to drink one of these wines or do they need more time to settle down? i am *considering* opening either a 94 langoa barton or a 96 lafon rochet. help, folks. bordeaux (and shipping wines) not my strong suit.
