François Lurton Sorgin Small Batch Sauvignon Gin Yellow 42.3% 0,7l

Sorgin Yellow takes the Sauvignon-based gin style into a more layered, barrel-influenced register. The name Sorgin means witch in Basque, a nod to the French South West and to the gin's distinctive, gently bewitching personality. The original Sorgin is matured in selected casks previously used for white wines from Pessac-Léognan and Graves. This ageing keeps the gin's freshness while adding spice, roundness and quiet depth. Aromas of juniper, citrus and Sauvignon fruit meet vanilla, toasted dried fruit, pepper and ginger. Its pale appearance with white-gold highlights underlines the refined style. Neat or over ice, it becomes a thoughtful digestif; in classic gin cocktails it adds structure. A French gin for those who enjoy oak influence without heaviness.

François Lurton

Between vineyard rows and Atlantic air, François Lurton in France crafts a gin that deliberately bridges wine and distilling. The name Sorgin—“witch” in Basque—hints at that playful alchemy. In 2016 the family revived an old distilling chapter, reaching back to Léonce Récapet, who took over a distillery in 1880, and turned Sauvignon Blanc into a defining distillate rather than a footnote....
