So I bought a bunch of '08 Oregon Pinots a while back, and I'm trying to organize my cellar a bit. I know they talked a big game out there about the ageability of their wines, but I want to make sure I'm not letting them sit overlong. Is there a good way to guess when a bottle will be coming into its prime, when you don't have multiple bottles of the wine to sample over time? Here's the ones on which I'm trying to put a rough drinking order/timeline (all wines are '08): White Rose - Dragon's Bluff - North Valley Reserve Bergstrom - Lancelloti Shea - Block 7 St. Innocent - White rose vineyard McKinley - Willamette Special Selection Penner Ashe - Bella Vita White Rose - 2008 Estate White Rose - Dragon's Bluff - White Rose Vineyard Hand Select White Rose - Dragon's Bluff - Dundee Hills Crowley - Willamette Pat Green - Ribbon Ridge Some insight would be appreciated. Can I really hold these things for 10 years and have them improve, or at least not degrade?

Yeah, I went a little crazy on a trip out there a few years ago. Patience is not one of my stronger virtues, but I would like to keep that vintage around for as long as possible, but not hold on so tight that I open a dead bottle. Thanks for the insight.

Quick question. 2007 Chateau Chauvin. Decant or no?
