François Lurton
François Lurton represents the fourth generation of winemakers in this great family, which has been making wines in the Bordeaux region since 1897.
Before moving into wine, his great-grandfather (and his ancestors before him) made spirits in the Bordeaux region, which they had been doing since the mid-19th century.
François is one of those people that we like to set within a ready-made history and past, but for whom high standards remain the watchword. Today, excellence is never left to chance. It must be natural, meticulous and considerate: ‘Nature can only express itself it we give it the resources’. Terroirs are expressed using innovative techniques, keen expertise, a hint of audacity, lots of rigour and sensitivity, and a stubborn commitment to organic growing, all of which is characteristic of François Lurton.
