Domaine Anne & Hervé Sigaut — Chambolle-Musigny
The Sigauts have been passionately but quietly making gorgeous wines in the tiny village of Chambolle-Musigny for generations. The secret is out and the quiet is about to be a thing of the past. The estate totals 17 acres, including spectacular old-vine parcels of Chambolle 1er Crus Les Fuées, Les Sentiers and Noirots – many of which are plowed by horse. Hervé follows the lunar calendar for most activities in the vineyard and cellar, and prefers to touch the wine as little as possible during élévage. The winemaking facility was re-built in 2004, with a sorting table, all stainless-steel fermentation tanks, and full temperature control. New oak is kept to a maximum of 40%. The wines are thoroughbred examples of the magnificent terroirs of Chambolle-Musigny.

2007 Chambolle-Musigny
- A very Chambolle nose of high-toned, ripe and elegant red berry fruit is nuanced by subtle limestone hints that are picked up by the precise, pure and detailed barely middle weight flavors that possess good energy and punch. (86-88)/2010+
2007 Chambolle-Musigny Les Fuées 1er Cru
- A mostly fruit-driven nose of very high-toned red pinot and violet aromas is in keeping with the detailed, intense, precise and minerally flavors that culminate in a finish of real verve as well as more complexity that younger vines normally are able to deliver. This is certainly very pretty as well as displaying plenty of the classic Fuées minerality. (88-91)/2011+
2007 Chambolle-Musigny Les Noirots 1er Cru
- A slightly riper and more complex if more deeply pitched nose of red berry, violet, rose petal and wet stone trimmed in a deft touch of wood spice dissolves into more complex and more powerful flavors that possess an attractive, even seductive mouth feel and very good length. Lovely. (89-91)/2012+
2006 Chambolle-Musigny $55 >>
- “An elegant and notably refined red pinot fruit nose that is cool, pure and restrained leads to equally reserved middle weight and forward flavors that culminate in a detailed, sweet and layered finish. This is a lovely villages and definitely worth a look. (87-89)/2010+â€
2006 Chambolle-Musigny Noirots 1er Cru $75 >>
- From three separate plots directly below the middle of Bonnes Mares, planted in 1964, 1980 & 1996. “This is quite ripe, indeed surprisingly so for the vintage with an appealing mix of red, blue and violet notes that introduce rich, sweet and admirably voluminous flavors are attractively textured and detailed, all wrapped in a firm, balanced and energetic finish. Lovely. (88-91)/2012+â€
