“Another excellent dry white wine from Bordeaux by Lurton! ~ Decanter”
“Bright yellow with green highlights. An elegant nose with refined fruit, evoking fresh grapefruit, lemon and mandarin zest, peaches, and hints of pineapple. On the palate, it is well-structured and juicy, with delicate fruit, a crisp character, and excellent length.” (Markus Del Monego 2023)

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated 2 stars (A solid, recommendable production, though slightly more conventional and uniform than the previous one)
About the estate:
Once owned by Baron de Montesquieu, Rochemorin was purchased by André Lurton in the 1970s, who transformed it into the stunning, must-visit estate it is today. The white wine, made from 100% Sauvignon Blanc, is not overly stylized, while the Merlot-dominated red wine is exceptionally elegant.
Decanter
Wine rated (2025 guide) 91/100
About the wine:
Another excellent dry white wine from Bordeaux by Lurton. 100% Sauvignon Blanc, precise, concentrated, lively, and fresh. Subtle woody notes on the palate. A crisp, vibrant wine with aromas of white flowers, paired with a very concentrated palate featuring notes of lime and candied fruit. Round and complex, it nevertheless retains all its elegance. 2025–2027

About the estate:
A former fortified farmhouse in the Périgord style that once belonged to Montesquieu, this château nearly lost its vineyard in the early 20th century, as the owners at the time preferred forestry to viticulture. Purchased in 1973 by André Lurton (who passed away in May 2019), it now boasts a vast vineyard and state-of-the-art cellars.

About the wine:
Full-bodied and generous, it offers pleasant notes of white peach and white nectarine, enhanced by verbena, while a slight hint of salted butter adds a subtle edge to the finish. Enjoy now through 2027.

About the wine:
The nose is aromatic, full of energy and liveliness. It reveals citrus notes (lemon, grapefruit) and herbaceous notes (freshly cut grass), as well as subtle floral hints (lemon blossom, acacia). On the palate, it displays a refined character...

About the wine:
On the nose, aromas of orange peel, green apple, white peach, and candied lemon carry through to the palate and into a creamy, smooth finish. Best enjoyed between 2025 and 2029.
