Domaine Parent, a renowned winery in Pommard, Burgundy, has a rich history dating back to the mid-17th century. The Parent family has been dedicated to winemaking for generations, with notable milestones such as guiding Thomas Jefferson through the vineyards in 1787 and founding the Domaine in 1803. Today, Anne Parent leads the winery, overseeing 22 hectares of vineyards and driving a renaissance in their wines. She is also a pioneer for women in wine, founding the "Femmes et Vins de Bourgogne" association. Domaine Parent is celebrated for its exceptional Pommard 1èr Cru and Corton wines, and is now embracing organic and biodynamic practices.
This Monthélie Blanc from Domaine Parent offers a rare and delightful expression of Chardonnay from its clay-limestone soils. The nose unfolds with alluring notes of yellow peach and hawthorn, layered over subtle toasted bread nuances that speak to its oak aging. Hand-harvested and matured in French oak barrels (30% new), this wine presents a compelling contrast of textures - simultaneously crunchy and full-bodied - while maintaining remarkable freshness and subtlety. Best enjoyed in its youth, this generous white Burgundy showcases the uncommon charm of Monthélie's limited white wine production.
