Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2023 guide) 3*Stars (High-quality production, setting the standard in its sector)
About the estate:
Vintage after vintage, Revelette has established itself as a grand cru of Provence. Tucked away in a valley on the northern slope of Mont Sainte-Victoire, Peter Fischer has been running the estate since the mid-1980s, employing cultivation methods that aim to be as natural as possible. Surrounded by forests, the vineyards are set in a wild, unspoiled setting and transform in the spring into a vast meadow of flowers. A generous soul, Peter also keeps Kiki, a domesticated pig, peacocks, chickens, dogs, and cats at his home—reminiscent of Pippi Longstocking’s house. This passion for life is reflected even in the glass, with refined and balanced wines. Recently, the younger generation has been stepping up, and his daughter Clara is on her way to taking on the challenge.
Guide des Vins Gault & Millau
5-Star Rated Estate (Outstanding Production)
About the estate:
Revelette comprises 24 hectares of vineyards, with 12 plots situated at altitudes ranging from 330 to 400 meters, planted with nine grape varieties, primarily reds (Grenache, Cinsault, Carignan, Syrah, and also Cabernet). This is the northernmost terroir of the Coteaux d’Aix-en-Provence appellation, all located about thirty kilometers north of Aix, in Jouques. But Revelette is also, above all, Peter Fischer and his partner Sandra, who manage the vineyard using organic farming methods, including plowing, natural grass cover, and the use of sheep manure, among other practices.

Wine rated (2017 guide) 14/20 (Good wine)
Rated Estate (2023 Guide) 2*Stars (These exceptional estates, often boasting fabulous terroirs, are must-haves that, thanks to the consistency and excellence of their wines, deserve a place in the cellars of discerning wine lovers)
About the wine:
As a rosé, the 2015 is a fine classic of the appellation—pleasant and lively.
About the estate:
Located in a cool terroir in the upper reaches of the appellation, in the town of Jouques, and neighboring Château de Vignelaure, this magnificent estate has been in the capable hands of Peter Fischer since the 1985 vintage. The vineyards have been certified organic since 1998. German by birth, Provençal by adoption, Peter Fischer broke new ground as early as the 1980s by planting Chardonnay in Provence with a vision of crafting great white wines. At an altitude of about 400 meters, this terroir is ideal for preserving the striking balance found in the whites that delight us today. We are perplexed by the reds, which lack precision. This likely reflects a cellar environment shaped by the winemaker’s rigor. Peter Fischer’s children, Clara and Hugo, now assist him at the estate.
