I went with the CWine because it has a bit more actual Cork material in them, which appeals to me. But really, both are excellent corks...the only two that I'd use.
You're right tho, your first note on the 18 does sound like a wine that's gotten a bit more air to it that this note does. Generally, my wines benefit from air tho. If the first 18 struck you as off/whatever let me know and I'll make that right! -

It was certainly drinkable, if a bit of a surprise. It's showing made me think it best to open this bottle sooner rather than later. This one certainly doesn't make me think there is any hurry on the last bottle.
