Pop and pour. Cork broke as I opened, with a hiss as some gas pushed the remainder out of the neck. This btl is from a different source (i.e., not from the domaine) than most of my other btls. On the nose: coconut, toast, smoke, strawberry...overdone oak. On the palate: good acidity, toasty oak, char, strawberry and pomegranate. Good density, but just too toasty and tannic..while the oak might integrate, I'm not sad this is my only btl.
