Despite Neal Martin's yet-to-be-scored latest vintage, it wasn't surprising to see the Sigauts being touted as "Burgundy's Next Big Thing" a few months after Martin sampled the 2020s. After a breakthrough vintage, their legacy has been solidified - even the notoriously hard-to-please critic Allen Meadows of Burghound had nothing but praise for these 2021s.
Being specialists in Chambolle Musigny, Anne and Hervé possess an innate understanding of the vines, resulting in well-defined wines that are elegantly fragrant and bursting with sweet fruit flavours. From the village wines to the senior crus, they have captured the signature floral and sensuous character of Chambolle with remarkable elegance and finesse. Grapes are farmed using biodynamic methods, 100% destemmed, and the wines are unfiltered and unfined.
Due to the decreased volume of Burgundy's 2021 vintage, Anne and Hervé made the tough decision to reject 30-50% of the harvest - a choice that has paid off handsomely, as the results are truly outstanding.
Optimal drinking window: Now - 2038
What the critics say:
"Soft notes of wood frame cool, pure and sauvage-inflected red and dark berry fruit and warm earth nuances. The dense, attractively rich and vibrant middleweight flavors possess fine detail on the balanced, precise and stunningly long finish that displays focused power. Moderate patience advised. **Sweet spot, Outstanding**"
