Marie-Pierre Boires runs one of the most flourishing wineries in the south of France and makes wines with character.
At the beginning of 1990's she started working at her family winery Domaine de Blanes but felt that she needed to understand the winemakers first before understanding the wine. She worked for two years for Didier Dagueneau in Loire Valley, than for Cave Coopérative in Ribeauvillé , Alsace followed by harversting and vinification periods in Argentina, Chili and Australia.
In 2000 she came back to Roussillon and took over Domaine de Blanes. She started by producing only one cuvée of red wine and moved forward step by step. Today Marie-Pierre makes ten different cuvées of white, red, rose and VDN . Fascinated by biodynamics she is working ever so hard to produce wines that best express quality of their region of origin.
