Domaine Vincent Dancer

Vincent Dancer

The domain of Vincent Dancer is located just outside the village Chassagne-Montrachet in the direction of Santenay. Vincent grew up in the Alsace where, at first, he was not at all concerned about a future as a winemaker. He studied to become an engineer and ended up in Burgundy, partly due to his father. The family has owned vineyards there for many generations and Vincent decided to visit the region. He was captivated by the nature of the region and decided to settle here in 1996. He was fortunate enough to have access to the family's beautifully situated vineyards and started with some 4 hectares of vines. Over the years he has been able to add some more, mainly in neighbouring Puligny-Montrachet. The domain has always remained under the radar and this is partly due to Vincent himself. He values his privacy very much and in recent years he has been receiving fewer and fewer wine journalists; he focuses mainly on the development of the domain with a very interesting vision and philosophy. A vision based on nature and biodiversity. The wines are an expression of his philosophy and vision, they reflect the vintage and the terroir. The wines of Vincent Dancer are exclusively available on allocation.

Vincent Dancer

Vincent Dancer can be counted among the latest generation of hard working top producers in the Côte de Beaune. Born in Alsace, he started his domain in 1996 with vineyards that were in the family. We met Vincent in 2004 and immediately noticed that he is full of passion and only goes for the highest quality. When we speak to him, we are reminded of Gianfranco Soldera. Vincent is modest, passionate and has a great philosophy and vision. Like us, he believes that there is too much monoculture in many wine growing areas and that there is too much and too often interference in nature by man. His new vineyards high above the village of Pommard show what his vision is. Here one can speak of biodiversity, a vineyard where trees and vines grow in harmony with each other and where one works entirely organically. Vincent thinks about everything and this is something you immediately notice when you first get to know him. The words; modest, passionate, decisive and conscientious characterize the person Vincent Dancer.

Chassagne Montrachet

Very elegant wine with a subdued aroma. Here we find white flowers and yellow fruit as well as a refined wood tone. The same aromas return in the taste and here the fine acids give a nice tension.

Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru la Romanée

Striking with La Romanée is the tropical ripe fruit that can always be found. The wine always seems a bit richer and thicker than Tête du Clos. Refined acids offer sufficient counterbalance to the rich touch.

Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru Tête du Clos

Burgundy Wines

In fact, the Burgundy wine region consists of six different areas. The most northerly is Chablis where only white wines are made on the unique chalk soils. The Côte de Nuits can be found between Dijon and Beaune, a sub-region where mainly red wines are made. Here you can find Grand Crus such as Vlos de Vougeot, Echézeaux and Mazis-Chambertin. Between Beaune and Chalon-sur-Saone lies the Côte de Beaune. A region where both white and red are made, but the white wines from villages such as Meursault, Puligny-Montrachet and Chassagne-Montrachet have almost reached cult status. Chalonnais begins south of Chassagne-Montrachet, an area with villages such as Rully and Mercurey. Here wines are made with a wonderful price-quality ratio. The most famous white wines from the south in Burgundy, the Maconnais, bear names such as Pouilly-Fuissé, Saint-Véran and Mâcon. A little further south is the Beaujolais, also part of Burgundy. No pinot noir here, but gamay for the red wines
