Default Petite Sirah/Syrah/Shiraz

Hello All,

I recently got a bottle of 2002 Bodegas Aguirre (from Livermore,
CA, USA) Petite Syrah. I have to say this wine blew me away! Anyone
else have experience with this particular wine ? I happened to have got
a gift of 1 case (yes 12 bottles - minus the one bottle I tasted).

The question is should I cellar it or should I drink it ? I just
want to get a sense for where this wine is in terms of age - it seems
pretty full bodied, with a fruity finish, and somewhat high in alchohol
(more than I usually like).

So any advice from the wisdom-of-the-usenet is more than welcome
(oddly enough - this is a more erudite group that the www crowd!).

Thanks,
Krishnan
