In my family, winemaking is a passion since the 1920s! My great grandfather, Marcel Bodet, initiated the wine activity at the time. I joined the family winery in 2014, after my parents, Marc and Agnès, had conducted the vineyard’s restructuring and its facilities. Today, I represent the fourth generation of winegrowers at Château Sirac, located in Saint-Laurent-d’Arce village within the Côtes de Bourg appellation terroir.
