Congratulations! You did not say which wine you made.
I do have a basic rule that I try not to violate. When the wine rates a WOWWW, it is time to start drinking it! If you want to bulk age longer, I would suggest you get seveal 1 gallon carboys, rack into them and then bottle the rest. That way, some is bulk aging and some is available to drink. Remember that some wine reachs a peak. If you wait past that peak it will only lessen in quallity. Just a suggestion.
