Gevrey-Chambertin Cuvée Edmond Geantet-Pansiot 2021

The wine

This Gevrey-Chambertin takes its name from Edmond Geantet, who established the domain in 1954 after marrying Bernadette Pansiot. Today, it is his son, Vincent Geantet, and his grandson who produce this wine from the Pinot Noir grapes that they grow on marl and limestone soils and which benefit from the influence of the semi-continental climate.
The wine is aged in wooden barrels and can be stored in the cellar for about ten years. It has a ruby-red colour which develops lovely hints of garnet-red over time. Its aromas of red and black fruits slowly develop into hints of sweet spices and leather as well as smokey and woody notes. The dense wine is structured by lovely tannins, which are relatively firm and persistent. This wine will pair wonderfully with indulgent dishes such as game, meat in sauce or autumn vegetables. It is recommended to let the wine breathe a little before serving to boost the flavours.

About the Producer Geantet-Pansiot

"Être sobre, c'est boire bon”, or “Being sobre is drinking well ". This is the Domaine’s motto, written on the label. It perfectly summarises the hedonistic spirit of these wines, full, concentrated, fruity but which are delicate and fine. The domaine was founded in 1954 following the marriage of Edmond Geantet and Bernadette Pansiot. Vincent Geantet now works in tandem with his son. The domaine based in Gevrey now has 13 hectares in villages, premier crus, and in Chambertin and Charmes-Chambertin as well as its plots in Chambolle and Clos-de-Vougeot. It is a reliable and safe bet of the Côte de Nuits. Vincent's daughter, Émilie Geantet, is developing a parallel trading business.
