($130, Jeanne Marie de Champs Selection): Domaine Parent, currently run by Anne and her sister Catherine Parent, is one of the finest domaines in Pommard.  Indeed, this Premier Cru and another one from the domaine, Les Argillières, are a lesson in the wines of Pommard, showing the diversity of the wines from that village.  Les Chanlis, bordering Volnay has an elegance and delicacy not usually found in young Pommard.  That said, it has structure and depth, reflecting the grandeur of the 2012 vintage.  Floral and rich and showing very well now, this wine is still best left in the cellar for a few years.  Judging from my experience with Parent’s wines, your patience will be rewarded.
