Vincent Dancer, Chassagne Montrachet Morgeot 1er Cru, 2021
🏰 The 2021 Burgundy vintage presented significant challenges, particularly for white wines, with severe April frosts causing heavy reductions in Chardonnay yields across the region. Despite these setbacks, the 2021 vintage for white Burgundy is showing surprisingly good quality, a testament to the meticulous work of vignerons like Vincent Dancer. Wines from this year are characterized by a return to a more classic style, offering liveliness, freshness, firm acidity, bright, lemony fruit, and noticeable minerality. Wines of substance and depth from the better Premier and Grand Crus of the Côte de Beaune are expected to reward aging for at least a decade. 【A rare and high-quality white Burgundy from a challenging vintage】.
🍴 While specific tasting notes for Vincent Dancer's 2021 Chassagne-Montrachet Morgot 1er Cru are not yet widely published, the general profile for 2021 white Burgundies suggests a wine with vibrant acidity and bright, lemony fruit. Expect a fresh and elegant expression of Chardonnay, likely with notes of white flowers, green apple, and a distinct mineral backbone. This 1er Cru is an excellent pairing for rich seafood dishes such as grilled turbot or pan-seared scallops. It also complements roasted poultry in a creamy sauce, or a delicate goat cheese.
🥂 This Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru is an ideal wine for a sophisticated seafood dinner, a special celebration, or as a valuable addition to a white Burgundy collection. Its inherent freshness and structure suggest it will age gracefully, offering increasing complexity over the next decade.
BACKGROUND
Domaine Vincent Dancer is a small but highly regarded Burgundian producer based in Chassagne-Montrachet, in the Côte de Beaune, France. The primary grape variety is Chardonnay. Dancer began in 1996 with an annual production of 4000 bottles, sold mainly to négociants, and produced from family-owned vines that had previously been rented to relatives. Since 2003, this figure has increased to around 20,000 bottles. Since the portfolio includes over a dozen wines, only a few barrels made of each.
