I recently received a mayacamas 1996 and a rochioli pinot noir 2001 riverblock, up to when can I drink them?

I would drink the pinot now as those usually are better young. The mayacamas might be good for a while yet if it has been stored properly if not drink it now as well. This is assuming the mayacamas is their cab

The Mayacamas is a Cabernet S, how long do you think it can last?
About the Pinot how long do you think it can hold ?

Hi Austin and welcome to the board. Bob Travis' wines are built for long-term. Yhe 96, if properly stored, will easily go 15 and hold for another 7-10. I like to drink most Pinots from 5-7 from the vintage. I just finished my last 1970 Mayacamus cab in 01 and it was still kicking patootie and taking no prisioners. WW
