Dancer began in 1996 with an annual production of 4000 bottles, sold mainly to négociants, and produced from family-owned vines that had previously been rented to relatives. Since 2003, this figure has increased to around 20,000 bottles. Since the portfolio includes over a dozen wines, only a few barrels made of each. Dancer farms five hectares (12 acres) of vines, without the use of herbicides. He was the first producer in the village to gain organic certification for his vineyards. The hands-off approach follows in the cellar; wines are fermented with wild yeasts, aged in barrel for 12-18 months and bottled without fining or filtration. From Chassagne-Montrachet Dancer makes village-level white, plus premier cru Chardonnay from Tête du Clos and La Romanée. A Pinot Noir is made from the premier cru La Grande Borne. In Meursault, Dancer releases a pair of Chardonnays from separate AOC Villages lieu-dits, and a Premier Cru Les Perrières,
