Chambolle-Musigny embodies the delicacy of the Côte de Nuits' finest red wines. Anne and Hervé Sigaut, in charge of an early 19th century family wine estate, produce some of the most outstanding terroirs of the appellation. Their wines have been unanimously acclaimed for their brightness and purity.
Henri Felettig, second generation to settle on this soil, in 1965, had inherited 2 hectares of vines and 1 hectare of grapes, from his parents, but the grapes are intended for the village cooperative.
The 1969 harvest will be the first vintage vinified by Henri.
In 1973, Reine and Henri purchased a larger property in order to increase the vineyard area.
For 20 years, they bought and leased all the plots they could attain, in order to expand the wine list, finally reaching a surface area of 9 hectares in 1992.
In 1993, a GAEC was formed between the parents and their children, Christine and Gilbert, thus becoming a family farm.
The wine list is becoming increasingly popular, and today the estate extends from Gevrey-Chambertin to Beaune, via Les Hautes Cotes de Nuits and Beaune, on an area of 2.5 hectares.
The typical Burgundy farm has today 100 plots, all cultivated in lutte raisonnée.
