Most wines that are reviewed by professionals will identify how long you can hold the wine. Typically they will give a year of when the wine can drink until. For example, Drink now throuh 2012. Generally, the better a wine is made, and the more that the wine’s natural acidity is used to preserve the wine, as opposed to greater amounts of sulfites, the longer it will last. But as far as a list goes, you can always check out http://www.winemag.com for reviews and many of them will include how long a specific wine can be stored.

I have a professional 100 bottle wine cave and find that even there a few wines have turned after a year or two. Yet others are a delight to open after a few years of storage. There is nothing like opening that bottle that looks old and the label slightly tattered to find a delicious wine within.
