HISTORY OF THE DOMAIN

Peter Fischer arrived in Jouques in 1985 and quickly became the region's iconic winemaker. He produces terroir wines between 330 and 400 meters above sea level, on 30 hectares of vines scattered in the middle of a natural setting. He respects the environment and is above all committed to showcasing his terroir, the northernmost in the appellation. A wine lover, endearing, passionate and exciting. Accompanied by his wife Sandra for a long time, today their children Clara and Hugo are projecting themselves into this beautiful family adventure .

In the heart of Provence , 30 km north of Aix-en-Provence, in the commune of Jouques, Revelette has remained in its raw, wild and mysterious state. Sheltered by the Sainte-Victoire mountain, in the middle of thousands of hectares of woods, a building, cellars, vines… A wine estate that has only one vocation: make wine, real wine.
