The history of the Estate
Peter Fischer, the revival of Revelette
The storyChâteau ReveletteIts history dates back to the Second World War, when vines gradually replaced lavender and olive trees. The Avon family, owners in 1932, sold part of the production in bulk. In the 1970s, part of the estate was sold off. In 1985, Peter Fischer's father bought the estate. Peter, a German winemaker, initially worked at the oenological laboratory in Brignoles, where he grasped the full potential of the Provençal vineyards. He arrived atChâteau Reveletteand cultivates his 12 hectares of vines with great passion and talent.
