Chambolle-Musigny, Domaine Anne et Hervé Sigaut 2020
Anne and Hervé Sigaut kindly postponed relaxing in to the weekend to host Nathan and me for a tasting at 6.30pm on a Friday. And we are very glad they did. Anne was the first to harvest in the village on 23rd August (and only in the morning as it was too hot by lunch time to be anywhere other than sipping iced drinks in the shade) which has led to a well-delineated, elegantly perfumed, sweet pastille-fruited set of delicious wines. From the village wine right up to the senior crus, the domaine has managed to capture Chambolle’s signature florality and sensuousness, and in 2020 there is an extra layer of hedonic, plush and suavely ripe red fruits (and a touch of black fruits too). The grapes are biodynamically farmed, 100% destemmed, and the wines unfiltered and unfined.
Nuits-Saint-Georges, Edouard Delaunay 2020
This wine captures everything we love about Nuits-Saint-Georges — structure, energy, and just the right touch of generosity. The nose leads with ripe red and black cherries, dark berries and a hint of violet, followed by subtle spice, forest floor and a touch of oak. It’s supple yet confident, with silky tannins wrapped around fresh fruit and a core of minerality. 2020 was an exceptional year in Burgundy. Despite the heat and drought, many growers achieved brilliant balance, and the reds are particularly exciting: concentrated fruit yet surprisingly fresh, with fine tannins and lifted acidity. It’s a vintage that’s both charming young and capable of ageing gracefully. Delaunay's choice of parcels, and pragmatic approach – where every cuvée is treated individually without a set formula for quantity of new oak, or amount of whole bunches used, allows each wine to offer a true and deeply satisfying expression of the terroirs.
