Sweet, lush, and crisp grapefruit rind dominate. Acidity that comes across like light bubbles drive crispness and keep things fresh. A bit of bitterness in the finish makes this wine difficult to consume in quantity.

The home estate of Pierre Lurton, the director of Cheval Blanc and d’Yquem. 45% Semillon, 45% Sauvignon Blanc and 10% Muscadelle combine to produce a wine with floral lemon and grapefruit scents, good acidity and an easy-to-like lime and grapefruit finish. 87-88 Pts

Lurton Tasting; 12/10/2012-12/11/2012 (London): Simple, clean, easy. No complexity, no character.
