Bodegas Henri Lurton Winery

Bodegas Henri Lurton was one of the most exciting places we visited.   And it's not because it's in the middle of vineyard or because of a grand tasting room or amazing food. It's simply the fact that we wanted to know why a famous French family from Bordeaux France would start making wine here.  

Well it turns out that they recognize the huge potential of the Valle de Guadalupe wine region.  As a very well established Bordeaux Château they came here to make their mark and be creative. Creativity is not something that is very popular in a very well established wine region like Bordeaux. You have standards set forth by the government of what type of grapes you can use and how to make the wine fair. Mexico has none of this.  So for this family it was their opportunity to be creative and help promote the Mexican wine culture.

When we first pulled up to the property we thought we were in the wrong place. It is literally a warehouse winery in the middle of the country. They actually reside in a building that Casa Magoni also uses for their production.  But don't let that fool you at all.

We would definitely say that they are producing some of the finest wines of Mexico's wine country.  This should be a definite stop for anybody looking for quality wine. But definitely reach out to them ahead of time as they have a very small tasting room.  And I'm not even sure if it's an official tasting room. It's a table that's set up in the lobby surrounded by glass walls so you can view all of the wine making equipment.  

Born out of an adventure that links France to Mexico. Henri Lurton, owner of Grand Cru Classé, Chateau Brane-Cantenac in Margaux, with the support of his eldest sons, Vincent & Nicolas, has made a significant investment in Baja California. Convinced by its winemaking potential, the warmth of its people and the generosity of its land, the Lurton Family is intent on creating one of Baja California’s premier wineries. One of the brand’s “secret weapons” is the fact that the “Lurton Family Business” has been firmly rooted in wine for generations. At last count, the Lurton family tree can count more than 30 wine projects around the world. Needless to say, having access to generations of information and experience can be quite useful when launching a new brand into the emerging market like Baja. Seamlessly bridging the cultural and viticultural divide between France & Mexico has been key to the brand’s rapid rise and acceptance in both the United States & Mexico. Bodegas Henri Lurton seeks to faithfully convey nature’s bounty and the Baja Terroir, uniting it with the mestizo vision that is based around tradition and authenticity.
