Oil & Wine Tasting in Languedoc
On the day of the tour, we'll meet at 9:30 am at the Esplanade de l'Europe in Montpellier. From there, we will travel to rural Languedoc to taste the fine products of this region.
Our first stop will be at a traditional vineyard, where we will learn about the stages of wine production. Next, we will visit the winery for a tasting of Languedoc wines, benefiting from the area's Mediterranean climate that produces notable vintages.
We will then proceed to a family-owned olive estate, surrounded by the countryside and a 16th-century mill. Here, we will learn how the family produces their olive oil, a key ingredient in local cuisine.
After the farm visit, we will taste various local products including olive oil, olives, vinegars, and a liqueur called farigoule. This culinary experience offers a memorable taste of the south of France.
Finally, at 12:30 pm, we will return to the starting point in Montpellier.
