Description
Vincent Dancer, Chevalier Montrachet, Grand Cru, Burgundy, White, 2018
Tasting notes
Reviewed by: William Kelley
Revisited from bottle, Dancer's 2017 Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru is showing brilliantly, unwinding in the glass with notes of pear, citrus oil, wheat toast, mandarin, dried white flowers and freshly baked bread. Full-bodied, textural and incisive, this is a concentrated, muscular Chevalier that's long and powerful, concluding with a chalky finish.
About the Producer
Vincent Dancer cultivates 6 hectares of land across Chassagne-Montrachet, Puligny-Montrachet, Meursault, Pommard and Beaune, family vines that he took up in 1996 after his oenology training. He got things going on his own at the family property, where he went on to build a winery in 1997. Since 2012, his vines have had organic certification. Vincent Dancer has shown himself to be talented and creative in his work, particularly succeeding in the maturation of his cuvées. His wines are remarkable, characterised by their purity and finesse.
