Vin de France Château Revelette Pur Sandra & Peter Fischer 2024

The wine

A single variety Ugni Blanc, harvested by hand and fermented in concrete vats. Malolactic fermentation and maturation on lees amplify its aromas and give an unctuous texture. The resulting wine is lively, nervous and mineral with lots of elegance and a seductive aroma profile. For drinking on its own as an aperitif or alongside a summer meal.

About the Producer Château Revelette

Since the mid 1980s Château Revelette has been run by the talented producer Peter Fischer, who has always been switched on to natural winemaking. Sheltered by Mount Sainte Victoire, the vineyard lies on the northern-most terroir of the Coteaux d'Aix-en-Provence appellation; characterised by their harsh, cold winters and dry, hot summers. Peter Fischer has boundless enthusiasm for making real wine; cultivating 11 different varieties over 17 plots situated at an altitude of between 330–400 metres. He obtained organic certification 20 years ago – favouring grass cover in the vineyard, limited copper dosage, green harvesting and manual cultivation – and his alchemic work in the winery respects tradition, but is endlessly attentive and vintage-specific. He has recently switched over to egg-shaped concrete tanks for his white wines.
