Maison Roche de Bellene Cuvée Réserve Pinot Noir Bourgogne 2012

Here's a quite tasty, light and refined young pinot with good complexity and depth at the price. New oak is fairly obvious but still nicely fitted to the generous cran-cherry fruit and spice. Also a herbal touch. It has a certain warmth and generosity, then a rather sour edged and slightly tannic finish. Give it another year. Score - 89. (David Lawrason, winealign.com, Jan. 10, 2015)
