Vincent Dancer Bourgogne Chardonnay 2024 is a precise, mineral-driven white Burgundy from the Côte de Beaune, produced by one of Chassagne-Montrachet’s most respected small domaines. The wine emphasizes Chardonnay’s natural freshness, clarity, and energy rather than overt oak, with a focused profile suited to both immediate drinking and short-term cellaring.
Tasting Notes
Pale lemon color with green highlights. The nose is restrained and clear, showing lemon citrus, white flowers, green apple, and a distinct mineral character. The palate is light to medium-bodied, with bright acidity, clean fruit, and a firm, saline finish. The 2024 vintage is marked by freshness, moderate alcohol, and strong aromatic precision. A balanced Bourgogne Chardonnay with the tension and purity associated with Vincent Dancer’s white wines.
