Domaine Anne et Herve Sigaut Chambolle-Musigny 2022

The Land
Sourced from four different “climats” scattered across roughly one hectare of vineyards, Domaine Anne et Hervé Sigaut’s Chambolle-Musigny represents the pure essence of this renowned village. The main component comes from Les Babillères in the south, near Vougeot, with additional contributions from Les Chardannes, Aux Croix, and Aux Combottes. Vines average around 35 years old, having established deep roots in the signature limestone soils that give Chambolle-Musigny its delicate floral aromas and ethereal finesse.

The Wine
As with all Sigaut wines, the 2022 Chambolle-Musigny is crafted in a style that emphasizes nuance over power. Grapes are carefully hand-harvested, sorted, and gently de-stemmed, then fermented with indigenous yeasts. Subtle pump-overs and punch-downs allow the fruit’s aromatic elegance to shine through without excessive extraction. Aging takes place for over a year in French oak barrels—usually with a modest new oak percentage—ensuring the wine’s natural grace and mineral-driven character remain front and center. The result is a village-level Chambolle that displays a delicate bouquet of red berries and violets, balanced by a lithe, refreshing palate.

The People
Anne and Hervé Sigaut continue a lineage of four generations in Chambolle-Musigny, cultivating roughly seven hectares of vines throughout the appellation. Anne focuses on nurturing the vineyards—eschewing herbicides in favor of organic methods—while Hervé oversees the cellar, maintaining a gentle approach that preserves Pinot Noir’s inherent refinement. United by a commitment to tradition and terroir, they have earned a reputation for wines that beautifully capture Chambolle’s trademark elegance, inviting Burgundy lovers to experience Pinot Noir at its most captivating.
