The estate : In the family for 7 generations, the Bodillard vineyard consists of 14 hectares spread over 7 winegrowing villages between Beaujolais and Mâconnais. Some cuvées are already certified Organic Farming and soon, all will be. The diversity of the plots allows the estate to cover a wide variety of soils (granite sands, schist, etc.) and thus to produce wines with varied characters. 95% of the plots are south-facing and the vinification of the reds follows the Beaujolais method (carbonic maceration) to bring out a vibrant fruit. Renaud Bodillard offers cuvées ranging from a simple (but not simplistic) and easy-drinking fruit to a deep, round fruit of great complexity.
