Domaine Geantet-Pansiot Gevrey-Chambertin Les Jeunes Rois 1996 is a Pinot Noir from a lieu-dit located on the border of Brochon, where the soils are composed of deep clay and limestone. Vincent Geantet utilised his approach of destemming and long cold soaks to extract deep colour and plush fruit flavours. The 1996 vintage provided a firm structural backbone that has allowed this village-level wine to age remarkably well. It displays an aromatic profile of wild strawberry, damp earth and toasted spice. This 1996 bottling is currently in a sweet spot of maturity, offering a generous and savoury expression of Gevrey Pinot Noir.

Robert Parker
Produced from 40-year old vines, this wine is medium-to-dark ruby-colored and has powerful cassis aromas on the nose. This oily-textured, decadently supple wine has an excellent mouth-feel, a medium-to-full body, and layers of sweet black fruit flavors. While not complex, it has a long, well-focused, and sumptuous finish. It should be at its peak between 1999 and 2004. - Pierre Rovani
