What kind of wine do you like? If you like big bold tannic wines then pop it now. As the wine ages it will typically lose ripe fruit flavors and the harsh tannins. Its probably gonna take 5-10 years to soften up, but you never know. It might take 20 and the tannins might be drying and ruthless. Unless you like big and extremely bold I would wait 5 years and keep an eye on cellartracker for tasting updates.

Thanks for all the input. I guess it's my trophy wine then. (As I've posted before, I've never spent more than $25 on a bottle of wine.) I'll probably just hold on to it for a while for an occasion like next years MNC game (LSU v USC).
I'll stick with my usual: J. Lohr Cab (Glassman special), 14 hHands blend and Alamos Malbec because they're at my price point.
