I have known the region and its vineyard since childhood as my family owns a beautiful wine estate...

In a typically Mediterranean landscape, wander around the lagoon to explore the vineyards of Picpoul de Pinet and Grès de Montpellier and taste the oysters of the Thau lagoon. I'll personally pick for you a special and secret place near the Thau Lagoon, only known by the locals. It's a small oysters farm (a family business) and I'll explain the process involved in oyster farming. . . you'll be surprised to learn :) You won't be able to taste fresher oysters in another place! They come directly from the lagoon to your plate - this is a one of a kind experience! After that, we'll go to a winery and taste a local wine that goes amazingly well with the oysters - the perfect combination!
I will pick you up with an air-condionned minibus and drive you to the Thau lagoon (approximately 30 min drive) which is the largest of a string of lagoons that stretch along the French mediterrannean coast. It is well known for its oyster production. I will bring you to an oyster and shellfish farm on the shore of the lagoon and explain all about this little known production. You will then enjoy 6 fresh oysters accompanied by a glass of white wine with a view on the beautiful blue lagoon. Then I will drive you to a magnificent wine estate and its Renaissance-style castle backed by its 11th century chapel and nestled in a lush garden. I will explain about its history and give you explanation on wine making while we visit the vinification cellar and the oak barrel room before tasting their range of white, red and rosé wines. Do not miss the typical white wine of the region, ideal companion of your shellfish: the famous Picpoul de Pinet
