WINE ESTATE
• The Parent Domaine, installed at Pommard since 1803, today managed by Jacques Parent’s daughters, perpetuates the traditions of a family of winegrowers whose origins go back to the mid-17th century. The Parent Domaine mainly produces “village” appellation wines, Premier Cru wines and Grand Cru Cote de Beaune. The wines are cultivated in a sustainable manner, with controlled yields in compliance with the “Terroirs”. The rigorous vinification is demonstration of a winegrower’s constant search for a precise balance between strength and elegance.
