Maison Bleue was founded in 2007 by Jon Meuret, who left a career in dentistry in Kansas City to move to Walla Walla and pursue his interest in winemaking. Meuret sources grapes from Walla Walla Valley and Columbia Valley. He has also started a Domaine J. Meuret label for single vineyard Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from dry farmed vineyards in Oregon and the Columbia Gorge. Maison Bleue focuses primarily on Rhone style wines of Grenache, Syrah, Mourvedre, Viognier and Marsanne. The estate’s wines have regularly earned ratings in the low and mid-90s.
