Preheat oven to 200°C and prepare four sheets of parchment paper by folding them in half
Clean and gut the sea bass fillets, then pat dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper
Slice the fennel, zucchini, and bell peppers into thin julienne strips and distribute evenly among the parchment paper sheets
Place a sea bass fillet on top of the vegetables on each parchment sheet, then add fresh thyme sprigs and thin lemon slices
Drizzle each fillet with olive oil and white wine, then carefully fold the parchment paper to create sealed packets
Bake for 15-18 minutes until the parchment is puffed and the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork
Carefully open the parchment packets at the table to release the aromatic steam, then serve immediately with crusty bread
