Marie-Laure Lurton

La Tour de Bessan Cabernet Sauvignon Blend

2022 vintage. Dark red, much deeper colour than usual for this estate. Marie-Laure Lurton seems to have gone for a bit more extraction in this exceptional vintage. More powerful than usual, with a fresh black fruit personality,embedded in a tight, ripe tannic structure. Serious length too. Decanting recommended,as it showed better the next day. Ab. 14%. — 2 months ago

Château de Villegeorge

Cru Bourgeois Haut-Médoc Red Bordeaux Blend 2010

To fully understand the Lurton family one needs to be a professional genealogist, but if you meet a Lurton in Bordeaux it would be safe to bet she/he is involved in wine business. Marie-Laure is one of the 10 children of Lucien Lurton, and she owns Chateau de Villegeorge in Haut-Médoc and Tour de Bessan in Margaux. Villegeorge 2010 is blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (79%) and Merlot (21%). Attractive nose of cassis, cedar wood and violets. Still plenty of very ripe fruit at 10 years old, good concentration and length. Fine value today at 28 euro. — 4 years ago

Bourgogne Blanc Chardonnay 2010

Bright fresh Chardonnay for Thanksgiving- ripe apple and lemon curd, a touch of whipped cream. Palate is fresh with plenty of juicy lemony acidity, and a touch of creaminess. Totally balanced and drinkable, will certainly revisit. — 6 years ago

Les Peuillets Savigny-les-Beaune 1er Cru Pinot Noir

The premier cru designation is legit. Much more subdued and balanced compared to its sister. Wonderful stuff. — 4 months ago

Premier Cru "Les Mitans" Volnay Pinot Noir 2017

Delicious Volnay. This was the last wine tasted on our 1 week trip to Burgundy. What you don’t see in all these Burg pics was all the tasting we did of the 2022 vintage which is either still in barrels or tanks. We were able to taste ~250 wines from the 2022 vintage. Quality looks good, quantity is way above 2021. 2023 was even more full in terms of quantity. Sante. — a year ago

Château de Ville George

Cru Bourgeois Haut-Médoc Red Bordeaux Blend 2015

Acquired in 1973 by Lucien Lurton, today the Château de Villegeorge belongs to his daughter, Marie-Laure, Oenologist, working at domain since 1986. Rich berry aromas with floral and spices, very pleasant. On the palate blueberry and wild berry flavors with licorice and toasty oak notes. Lingering rich finish on soft juicy tannins, drinking well and still has room to go. Very Nice. — 5 years ago

From 100yo vines. Very spicy, savoury character. Funky rhubarb and vegetal notes on the nose. The palate is full of dark fruit and spice. Very concentrated. A singular expression. — 10 months ago
