2010 | Geantet Pansiot | Gevrey Chambertin En Champs

Complex aroma of the wine, sweet, elegant, dominated by shades of red fruits and berries. Exciting and intense taste some wine reveals notes of juicy red and black cherries and sweet dark plum nuances of clove, cinnamon and oak. Excellent concentration of ripe tannins and bright minerality end in fresh persistent finish.

Reviews:

• Jancis Robinson: Sweet and potent on the nose. Some refined dryness on the finish. This is dramatic stuff. Really ambitious and tense but with quite enough fruit.

• Burghound: Over the past few years this has become one of the most consistently excellent villages level wines in all of Burgundy and 2010 will only add to that reputation. The nose is quite similar to that of the old vines Gevrey though here it is perhaps ever-so-slightly more elegant as the fruit slides more to the red side of the fruit spectrum. There is superb concentration and phenolic ripeness to the powerful and strongly mineral-inflected medium-bodied plus flavors that terminate in a driving, fresh and vibrant finish that is focused, linear and gorgeously persistent. Exceptional quality for what this is and highly recommended though note that patience is required.

Producer Information

Geantet-Pansiot is a wine producer located in Gevrey-Chambertin, a village in the Côte de Nuits area of Burgundy. It is best known for its Pinot Noir wines from Gevrey-Chambertin and Chambolle-Musigny, and also makes several wines under the Bourgogne AOC. The estate was founded in 1954 when newlyweds Edmond Geantet and Bernadette Pansiot purchased a three-hectare (seven acre) vineyard on the edge of Gevrey-Chambertin. Today, vineyard holdings total 13 hectares (32 acres), mainly through farming contracts. Geantet-Pansiot holdings include, among others, parcels in the Poissenot and Les Feusselottes premier cru vineyards as well as 0.45 hectares (1.1 acres) in the Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru. As well as lieu-dit sites such as the Jeunes Rois and Croisettes vineyards, the estate also has access to over 4.5 hectares (11 acres) of basic, Gevrey-Chambertin villages and almost 0.4 hectares (one acre) of Chambolle-Musigny. All of the vineyards are managed by Vincent Geantet who joined the business in 1977 before taking on complete control in 1989. Since 2006, Vincent has co-managed the estate with his son Fabien. Geantet-Pansiot has steadily phased out the use of fertilizers and herbicides in its vineyards. Harvest is done by hand and the bunches are destemmed and rigorously sorted prior to going into tank. Fermentation is carried out with indigenous yeasts after an extensive pre-ferment cold-soak and the wines are matured for approximately 14 months in oak barrels, around a third of which are new.
