About this tour
This five-hour wine tour takes small groups into the countryside around Montpellier to explore Pic Saint Loup's viticulture. Your local guide drives you to two wineries (or one on Sundays) where you'll learn winemaking from vine to bottle and taste six wines across the region's terroirs. The route includes a medieval village and a countryside viewpoint, finishing with an optional farm-to-table meal at your guide's family home—a chance to eat what locals actually cook.

What to expect
You'll spend the morning and early afternoon driving between working vineyards with someone who knows the area intimately. At each winery, expect hands-on explanation of how they grow grapes and make wine, then settle in to taste their range properly—not rushed pours but real wines to compare. You'll walk to a village with genuine character, not a theme-park reconstruction, and stop at a scenic spot where the landscape makes sense of what you've just tasted. If you opt for the family meal, you'll eat at someone's kitchen table with food cooked that morning, not reheated from a commercial kitchen.
