uncorks
Pops the bottle
Uncorks means to remove the cork from a bottle, especially wine: She uncorks a bottle of champagne to celebrate.
Figuratively, to uncork is to release something held back—a pitcher uncorks a fastball, a team uncorks an offensive explosion, someone uncorks pent-up emotions.
The word suggests sudden release after containment.
