Les Fumées Blanches Sauvignon Blanc

Les Fumées Blanches is a highly successful wine brand established by François Lurton and his brother Jacques in 1997. The brand is named after the morning mist ("white smoke") that blankets the vineyards in the foothills, protecting the grapes from the intense southern sun. While originally focused on the Gascony region in southwest France, the wine is now meticulously crafted by sourcing Sauvignon Blanc grapes from various French terroirs, including the Loire Valley and Languedoc, to maintain its signature aromatic profile.

Today, the brand is part of the Domaines François Lurton portfolio. François Lurton represents the fifth generation of a renowned Bordeaux winemaking family and has expanded his operations globally, with estates in Argentina, Chile, and Spain. The company remains independent and family-owned, with its headquarters located at the Domaine de Poumeyrade in Vayres, near Bordeaux, France. Despite its global reach, the production of Les Fumées Blanches remains centered in France, where it has become one of the world's most recognized Sauvignon Blanc brands.
