Other than standing them upright, and opening them with a durand, the rest was much like any other bottle. Way too much disagreement on this thread about decanting, so we avoided that. Opened them at different times with respect to pouring, which made a difference. We didn’t have a cradle, and to be honest, the bottles didn’t need them. Sediment stayed mostly at bottom till the final pour. We drank through each in about 45 min after first pour, and there was definitely evolution in the pop & pour bottle. Less so in the one left to “air out”.
