Château Revelette is an incredible property set at a crazy elevation north of Mount Saint Victoire in the heart of Provence. It’s been organically farmed for decades, producing rosé with a high degree of elegance and finesse. North of Mount Saint Victoire, lays the estate of Peter Fischer, the beautiful Château Revelette. This 25 hectare estate is unique in Provence; its high elevation and the protection of the mountain allows much slower ripening of its grapes, resulting in wine that is both fine and aromatically driven, traits rarely found in the appellation.
Peter Fischer tends his vines organically and practices a non-interventive style of winemaking that allows the wines to truly represent their unique terroir and to accurately express the character of the given vintage. The Rosé is a bright and elegant wine, delivering high-toned flavors of strawberry and melon with plenty of extraction and length. It’s a traditional Provencal blend of Grenache, Syrah and Cinsault.

I love everything about this wine! Bone dry and super fresh, the south of France in a glass.
Rosé is the classic wine of spring and summer, complementing all types of cuisine; especially anything on the grill.

“Vignon’s 2019 Chateauneuf du Pape delivers even more than I hoped for based on a previous sample. Hints of garrigue, roses, cherries and raspberries appear on the nose, while the palate is full-bodied, silky and long, with an intense, almost briny finish. The assemblage is 50% Grenache, 10% each Mourvèdre and Syrah, plus smaller proportions of seven other permitted varieties, while the élevage includes foudres, demi-muids, concrete and wooden tanks, plus terracotta amphorae.”

Xavier Vignon’s brand spanking new CDR 100% is a thing of beauty. It’s already got a blessing from Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate who described this wine as, “Full-bodied, concentrated and supple”. This is a gorgeous and intricate blend that features all of the Southern Rhone appellations. This year, the blend was 40% Grenache, 25% Mourvedre, 15% Syrah, 7% Cinsault, 7% Marselan, 6% Terret Noir. Nobody can do it like the mad scientist, Xavier Vignon.
From the famous family behind Peyrassol, comes a new Cotes du Provence smash hit. The wine is pale pink in color with notes of small wild berries on the nose complemented by a hint of juniper. This spiciness lends weight to the liveliness on the palate reminiscent of exotic citrus fruits, creating a crisp, harmonious and refreshing ensemble. Spice lingers on the palate for a full and round finish.
90 Points, Vinous
Josh Raynolds of Vinous’ equalled his highest score ever in his ten years reviewing the wine, calling it “lively and sharply focused” as well as complimenting the “very good clarity on the palate, with nervy strawberry, redcurrant and tangerine flavors plus a touch of honeysuckle.” It’s bone-dry yet boasts juicy red and citrus fruits with the “sneaky mineral and floral nuances” that Raynolds called out as well. It’s just a super solid, vibrant and zipped up wine.
