So far I haven't managed to keep any past the 4 year mark..lol..

Perhaps you're just not buying enough of each vintage than :)

.. but that seems to be a nice time frame for the aging wrt the taste.

it really depends on the vintage and also varies from winery to winery.
A fairly priced cab that will age for 20+ years is La Jota.
Especially their anniversary series.
i have some going back to the 80 vintage.
Just opened an 84 a few weeks ago and it was getting better.

Also a decent every day wine is Ridge's Santa Cruz($20/25) bottling.
Their Montebella bottling is a freaking power house.
But the last Montebella I bot('96) was $145.
That's about when I decided to put the brakes on buying wine.
I got enough of it to last a long while
And I'm just not rich enough to be paying that much for a bottle of grape juice!
