Decided to try the final two of these. One shows a seriously raised cork - I can imagine the pressure under there. The other looked like it might be a good bet. Not so much ... very fizzy. That’s it for my 2010s.
Still have some 2012s and 2013s around.

Cork was depressed under the foil, and did not mushroom out of the neck as I feared it might. Aroma from the neck seemed odd, which a decant quickly explained. It was quite fizzy. Aromas showed that it was not worth saving and down the drain it went. I knew this was distinct possibility so was not upset. Just returned to the cellar to grab a 2011 CT Rutherford to enjoy with steak tips.
