Founded in 1803 and now in its 13th generation, the domaine is run by sisters Anne and Catherine Parent - the first women to lead the estate in its history.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBased in the heart of Pommard, the domaine comprises around 10 hectares, with holdings centred on the village and its leading Premier Cru sites. Under Anne Parent's direction, the estate has undergone a profound evolution in both vineyard and philosophy. A pioneering figure in Burgundy, she founded the Femmes et Vins de Bourgogne association and played a key role in advancing the recognition of climats such as Epenots.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eViticulture is now fully organic, with a long-term transition to biodynamics completed after more than a decade of careful implementation. As Parent herself notes, this is not a question of trend but of stewardship - protecting soil health, expressing terroir with clarity, and ensuring longevity for future generations.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\"80-year-old vines here – worked by horse for the last 16 years – here is the source of the domaine’s massale selections. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDepth but also with high-toned flavour energy – perfumed – that’s lovely! So direct, so mouth-watering – ultra fresh but still a wine with proper 1er cru intensity – wide waves of finishing complexity – potentially a great one here.\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBill Nanson, Burgundy Report (January 2024)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\"Characteristic of her 2022s, pure luscious black fruit is apparent, supplemented by an alluring floral component. The tannins are sturdier yet still supple, and unobtrusive. There’s an uncommon elegance here. Dare I say, a charming Pommard. Les Chaponnières sits on the Volnay side, but near the village of Pommard itself, tucked in between Les Croix Noires and Les Rugiens. A portion of Parent’s vines were planted in 1929.\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e97 points.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMichael Apstein, Decanter (March 2024)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"James Nicholson Wine Limited","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56912743924090,"sku":"18337","price":130.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0516\/7146\/6141\/files\/Domaine-Parent-Pommard-1er-Cru-Les-Chaponnieres-Vieilles-Vignes-2022.png?v=1779368185","url":"https:\/\/highburyvintners.co.uk\/products\/domaine-parent-pommard-1er-cru-les-chaponnieres-vieilles-vignes-2022","provider":"Highbury Vintners","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
