Dupéré Barrera

Do we even need to point out that Emmanuelle Dupéré is Québécoise? She and her husband Laurent Barrera (from Toulon) began as winemaking neophytes. In the early 2000s, they created a boutique négoce operating focusing on the wines of Provence and Languedoc-Roussillon. Their initial courage and smarts soon grew into confident decision-making abilities and impressive tenacity, resulting in an entire range known for its consistency and serious quality. The Dupéré-Barrera name today enjoys a reputation unanimously lauded by the global wine press.

Seven years ago, they bought a vineyard in the Côtes de Provence, Clos de la Procure, where they produce three wines (red, white, and rose), all certified organic. They also built there, in 2009, a cellar whose architecture has a contemporary flair. The Franco-Québécois couple’s négoce-vinificateur-éleveur activities have resulted in a diverse line-up of wines, each of which is unfailingly impeccable.
