For a relaxed and informal evening, enjoy a pizza party by the pool using the château's semi-professional pizza oven. Guests can get involved in preparing and cooking their own pizzas, making it a fun experience for both adults and children.

Option 1 – Pizza Preparation & Oven Introduction

Elie will prepare the pizza dough and toppings for approximately 25–35 pizzas and spend 30–60 minutes showing you how to use the pizza oven and prepare the pizzas.

The service fee is €90. Ingredients are charged separately according to your selections and typically cost approximately €50 for 25–30 pizzas.

Option 2 – Fully Catered Pizza Evening

Alternatively, full support can be provided for the evening, including preparation, service, cleaning, salads, beer, wine and Prosecco.

Prices start from €25 per person and vary according to the number of guests.

The semi-professional oven cooks approximately one pizza every 3–4 minutes, creating a relaxed and sociable evening where guests can participate in making their own pizzas.

Spanish meal

Fun Spanish-themed evenings, with an assortment of tapas and sangria to start your meal,
and a Valencian paella prepared in front of you, served with Spanish wine, and crème brûlée for dessert.

Drinks and service are included.

Prices start at €30 per person, depending on the number of participants.

Spit-Roasted Lamb or Pork Over a Wood Fire

The lamb cooks for approximately 4 to 6 hours in front of the château.
Once cooked, it is carved by the chef, and guests compose their own plate with side dishes
including salad, potatoes, peppers and grilled tomatoes, with fruit salad for dessert.

There is no plated service; this is a relaxed BBQ-style meal, with the team present throughout.

Prices start at €33 per person, with a minimum of 23 people and subject to producer availability.

Appetizers & Wine Tasting

You can enjoy an appetizer platter, cheese platter and charcuterie board during a wine tasting in our cellar,
or at another time during your stay. This should be arranged in advance.

Our Wine Cellar

For David, the owner, and me, wine and the vineyard are a passion, not a business,
and we are happy to share this with our guests.

For all the wines in our cellar, we know the producers personally and buy directly.
We sell them at prices comparable to those charged at the estate.
The prices are lower than in supermarkets, and some of our selections are not available there.
Wines start at €9.

Wine Tasting

€10 per person, with a complimentary platter of local charcuterie.
At least six wines will be presented.
A minimum of 15 participants is required.
