Discover winegrowing on the Luxembourg Moselle in all its facets – spread across four seasonal tours! Join us through the four seasons in the ‘Wéngert’ and see how the work of the winegrowers changes throughout the year.

 

On the guided tours through the picturesque vineyards, you’ll immerse yourself in the world of the vines, learn about the seasonal work in the ‘Wéngert’ and gain insights into the art of ageing in the wine cellar.

 

The tour concludes with a delightful tasting of four selected wines at a local winemaker’s – a perfect finale for all the senses.

  • Panoramic views of the valley from the vineyards
  • Fascinating insights into viticulture and wine production
  • A relaxing end to the day: wine tasting at a local winery
Included

Approx. 2-hour guided tour led by one of our guides + approx. 1-hour tasting of 4 selected wines (5 cl each)

 

The tasting of 4 selected wines (5 cl each) at a local winery (in exceptional cases, the tasting may be conducted by our guide) must be added to your basket separately, specifying the correct number of people! The non-alcoholic tasting includes either grape juice or non-alcoholic wines, depending on what the respective winemaker has available. If no tastings are booked, only the guided tour with one of our guides will take place.

Not included

Any consumption beyond the four wine tastings (5 cl each) included in the tour must be paid for on the spot directly to the respective winemaker.

 

Participants are free to stay longer at the winery after the official tasting session has ended, provided the winemaker agrees.

Further information

Join us on our guided tours through the four seasons in the vineyards of the Luxembourg Moselle and discover how the landscape and the work of the winegrowers change with the seasons.

 

Once the vines have shed their leaves and entered their winter dormancy, the focus shifts from the vineyards to the cellar. Here, we give participants an insight into the quiet but crucial phase of wine maturation and learn how the wine develops its character during the winter.

 

After the roughly 3–3.5-kilometre walk through the vineyards – with sweeping views and fascinating insights – the crowning finale awaits: the wine!A local winemaker will present four tastings (5 cl each), so you can taste and enjoy the result of all the hard work in the vineyard straight from the glass.
