Notes on the Producer
Bonnigal-Bodet Vignerons is an estate located in Limeray, in the Loire Valley. The estate has existed since 1927 and is still managed in a family manner. Today it is the fourth generation, with Jean-Baptiste Bonnigal and his long-time friend Stéphane Bodet , who operates the vineyard. They produce wines under the appellations of Touraine Amboise, Crémant de Loire and Touraine, on 55 hectares. For them, the majority of the work is done in the vineyards: working the soil, enhancing the ecosystem, respecting nature and the environment. They are also minimally interventionist in the cellar in order to let the terroir of each vintage express itself fully. Aging tends to be long, in oak barrels and on fine lees.
