Vincent Dancer
La Romanée Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Chardonnay
Chassagne-Montrachet, Côte de Beaune, Burgundy, France
Couldn’t believe I waited so long to open my last bottle and was afraid disappointment would follow. Not to be the case: light straw color, lemon-citrus curd , fat, waxy texture and lengthy finish. A lovely mature Burg in today’s reality

Mar 3rd, 2019This is lovely. Floral notes mingles with crushed stones, lemon peel, lemon curd and crisp apple. Round ripe on palate with bright acidity, lemon, pear and wet stones. Good length on the mineral citrus inflected finish.

Jul 15th, 2018Similar to my last bottle with just a touch of reduction to mute the fruit and mineral aromas of gala apple and meyer lemon. Great texture and persistence on the palate with mineral and stone fruit flavors.

Oct 12th, 2017This is just pretty and fun. Juicy notes of tangerine, apple and pear skin with just a hint a warm rocks. The palate is high toned with green apple and pear fruit. Zesty acidity and minerality addd to the texture. Mineral citrus dominated finish with lots of upside.

Fresh chassagne fruit. Citrus, oily, sharp and clear. Pretty and rounded. Yum!

Jun 18th, 2016What a gorgeous thing to go with lunch. That trademark Dancer intensity and lushness matched with the depth and acidity 2010 brings. I like the broadness of the Romanee- lemon, honeyed, great Chassagne freshness. Really excellent right now.

This is just lovely with pale straw color, fresh pear, apple, hazelnut aromas combined with a long, non-astringent finish.
