Wine tasting, especially sweet, fruity whites, is the obvious attraction of the Moselle Valley. The valley's Route du Vin begins at Waserbillig and follows the Moselle River south through the wine region's capital at Grevenmacher and beyond to some picturesque villages.
The Cellars of Poll-Fabaire in the hillside village of Wormeldange are worth a visit, as are the larger Caves Bernard-Massard in Grevenmacher and St Martin in Remich. All three are open for tours and tippling from late spring to early autumn.
The beautiful Moselle River, which marks southern Luxembourg's border with Germany, is known to locals as the 'Wine River'. From April to September, its waters are plied daily by the MV Princesse Marie-Astrid, a tourist boat that hits all the major sipping-spots from Schengen, at the southernmost tip of Luxembourg, to Bernkastel, Germany. Most villages celebrate the wine-making process during the festival season from August through November.
