A sense of place.A human perspective.
Our curiosity guides us towards wines that express a connection between people and place. We look at where they grow, the people who make them, and the choices that shape their character — from established family domaines to a new generation finding their own voice.

Generations Rooted in Gevrey-Chambertin
Domaine Geantet-PansiotDomaine Geantet-Pansiot began in 1954 with Edmond Geantet and Bernadette Pansiot in Gevrey-Chambertin. Their son Vincent continued developing the domaine, and Fabien joined the family business in 2006. Today, the third generation carries forward a relationship with Burgundy built through years of vineyard work and shared experience. Gevrey-Chambertin remains at the heart of the domaine, alongside vineyards in Marsannay, Chambolle-Musigny and the Hautes-Côtes de Nuits. These places offer different expressions of Burgundy, shaped by their soils, elevation, exposure and the age of their vines. Old vines are an important part of the estate’s identity. Their care begins in the vineyard, where the family follows lutte raisonnée: an approach that bases farming decisions on observation and the needs of each parcel. Attention to vine health and the condition of the fruit continues through harvest and careful sorting. In the cellar, the work centres on preserving fruit, developing fine tannins and allowing the wines time to come together during élevage. The resulting style combines the depth and structure associated with Gevrey-Chambertin with fresh fruit and a welcoming texture. The wines offer different experiences as they develop. Some are expressive and enjoyable in their youth; others benefit from more patience. Across these differences, the family’s attention to fruit, texture and vineyard character provides a familiar thread.
Why We Love It
We appreciate the way Geantet-Pansiot makes Burgundy feel approachable while giving us plenty to explore. There is immediate pleasure in the fruit and texture, followed by details that emerge with air, food and time. The domaine also offers a rewarding way to understand place. The freshness of the Hautes-Côtes, the character of Marsannay and the depth of Gevrey-Chambertin create opportunities to taste and learn through comparison. Each wine adds something to our understanding of the landscape. For us, the human connection lies in the continuity of the work: successive generations caring for vineyards, learning from each harvest and carrying that experience forward. We value wines that express this history while remaining a pleasure to open and share.
