Morey-Saint-Denis Premier Cru Les Millandes, Domaine Anne et Hervé Sigaut, 2021

We were aware that we had stumbled upon something truly special when we introduced Anne and Hervé Sigaut to our collection last year. The sell-out sensations from the previous year have lived up to their reputation with their latest 2021 Chambolle Musigny release.

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 flavors. 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.
