It does happen

I was at a wine tasting a couple of weeks ago and the couple across from us mentioned opening an '82 La Mission Haut Brion recently and having the same experience.

I too believe in opening wines more towards the beginning of their window of maturity. It's great if you can buy several bottles of something and try them throughout the years. But that's kind of hard to do, for most of us, with classified wines, especially First Growths.
