Perrières is the site most Burgundy lovers will tell you should have been Meursault's grand cru, and Vincent Dancer owns barely a quarter-hectare of it — 0.29 hectares on the stony limestone of the northern side of Perrières-Dessous, planted mostly in 1963. The estate has been a quiet star of the Côte de Beaune for years: based in Chassagne, certified organic since 2012 (the first in Chassagne-Montrachet to get there), with the 1er cru vineyards worked by horse. Théo Dancer, who returned in 2016 and took over fully in 2021, keeps the cellar deliberately hands-off — native-yeast ferments with nothing added, natural malolactic, no bâtonnage, and a few months settling in stainless steel before an unfined, unfiltered bottling. No new oak has been bought here since 2019, which tells you where the priorities lie: the site, not the barrel. This is the kind of Meursault that gets allocated rather than sold, and it will reward patience in the cellar.

"The 2023 Meursault 1er Cru Perrières is chalky and ethereal, offering up notes of crisp pear, peach, minty green apple and freshly baked bread, followed by a medium to full-bodied, satiny and textural palate that's concentrated and chiseled, with good grip and cut." —William Kelley

More about Vincent Dancer

Vincent Dancer is a top winemaker in Chassagne-Montrachet. His family name is a great description of his wines. They are muscular, taught and sometimes downright powerful. But they are also precise, elegant and beautifully poised. Effortlessly balanced.

Less than a decade ago Dancer's wines were first brought to the U.S. and those of us lucky enough to try them then were immediately impressed. This wasn't wine with potential, it was wine of intrinsic greatness.

In 1996 Vincent moved from his childhood home in Alsace to take over some family vineyards. The first thing he focused on was farming, becoming the first certified organic producer in Chassagne-Montrachet. His attention to detail in the vineyards has brought on a label of "perfectionist."

In the cellar he is deliberate and, of course, does everything with a goal of exquisite balance. His holdings are small so the wines were always quite limited. But given their growing popularity and recent low yields, they have become downright scarce.

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Roast capon with morels, lobster with brown butter, seared scallops, veal blanquette, aged Comté.

Tasting Profile

Dry, full-bodied white Burgundy built on Chardonnay from a very stony limestone site. Expect citrus and orchard fruit with hazelnut and a distinctly stony, saline edge, firm acidity, and a long mineral finish. Tightly wound young; it should open up with cellar time.
