2016 Vincent Dancer Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru La Romanée
Original wooden case containing 6 bottles of Premier Cru Burgundy
The 2016 Vincent Dancer Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru La Romanée is an exceptional white Burgundy from one of the most highly regarded villages in the Côte de Beaune. La Romanée is a Premier Cru terroir within Chassagne-Montrachet where Chardonnay grapes can produce wines with concentration, refinement, and a distinct mineral structure.
Vincent Dancer works with small plots and limited production and has built a strong reputation among Burgundy enthusiasts. This 2016 vintage has now spent about ten years aging in the bottle. As a result, the wine is in an interesting phase where ripe fruit, minerality, and more complex aging notes come together.
This wine is presented in its original wooden case containing 6 bottles of 0.75L. For a sought-after producer like Vincent Dancer, a complete original case offers significant added value for enthusiasts and collectors of high-quality Burgundy wines.
Aroma & taste
Layered aromas of citrus, ripe apple, pear, and white stone fruit are complemented by floral, spicy, and mineral notes. Bottle aging can bring out more complex notes of hazelnut, brioche, and dried citrus. The palate is concentrated and refined, with crisp acidity, a lovely texture, and a long, mineral finish.
Serving & foodpairing
Serve at around 11–13°C in large white wine glasses. Excellent with lobster, scallops, turbot, sole, refined fish dishes, poultry, veal, and dishes with a delicate butter or cream sauce.
Storage potential
A Premier Cru Chassagne-Montrachet of this caliber has excellent aging potential. The 2016 vintage is currently at a lovely stage of maturity and, with proper cellaring, has the potential to develop even further. However, the wine is already particularly enjoyable to drink right now.
