Seven pioneering men of the region recognized the magic of the huge calcareous rock downstream from Remich. They cultivated the first vineyards now infamous for its sparkling wines. In 1919, in the aftermath of World War I, they set up the Caves St. Martin(1).
We'll set out by coach for the caves where you’ll discover the secrets to wine making while strolling through the underground passages that seem to go on for miles. We’ll take part in a wine tasting* as well. After our tour, we’ll go to the historical center of Remich, where you can enjoy some free time on your own. Also called the “Pearl of the Moselle,” this charming city is surrounded by an outstanding panorama of vineyards and forests. Take a stroll along the several miles of promenade in the shade of the trees along the Moselle or sit back on a cozy terrace for some more wine. After our tour, we’ll return to the ship on foot.
