Since just about any web site of any note uses some kind of CMS (at
least, by "CMS" I assume you mean "not hand-crafted using Notepad or
something"), we may as well start with the inevitable:

http://www.apple.com/

then

http://www.ted.com/

followed by

http://www.dailycandy.com/

and possibly

http://www.bbc.co.uk/  

and let's not forget

http://www.uniqlo.com

and so on.

On a rather tangential note, I have it on good authority that until
about 1997, yahoo.co.uk used to FTP individually hand-crafted HTML files
(edited using HomeSite) directly to their live servers in the States. It
was neither beautiful nor functional though.
