Wednesday, November 30, 2022 - I was looking forward to trying this bottle with hopes it would deliver in a big way.
Day 1: My first impression is of a wine that is deeply pigmented for a Pinot Noir , highly extracted and has a certain degree of power if not much nuance and finesse.
Day 2: Hasn’t budged. Didn’t experience the improvement described by prior CT contributors. Missing the florals, spice and clarity I seek in this varietal.

Lacking the perfume and ineffable mysteries of a quality Chambolle Musigny or for that matter the delicious Pinot Noir of Oregon from the likes of Kelley Fox, Lingua Franca, Cameron, Thomas, Eyrie, Cristom, Drouhin Roserock Zepherine and the list goes on.
I’ve got two more bottles of Cuveé H that I’ll cellar for a few years on the off chance that more time will help . Looking to the crystal ball ….. don’t expect a late bloomer here.
