On the banks of the Moselle at Grevenmacher, Caves Bernard Massard invites you to a concise, convivial tasting: one glass each of Auxerrois Château de Schengen, Riesling Côteaux de Schengen and La Petite Fleur Pinot Noir. The setting is their inviting indoor tasting room or, weather permitting, the terrace overlooking the river, and the experience can be paired with a small cheese and charcuterie board to deepen the tasting notes.

THE WINES

A trio of signature cuvées

The tasting is built around three distinct glasses: Auxerrois Château de Schengen, Riesling Côteaux de Schengen and La Petite Fleur Pinot Noir — a compact sequence that lets you compare varietal character without a full cellar tour.

THE SETTING

A tasting room or terrace on the Moselle

Guests may enjoy their glasses in the cellar’s comfortable interior or on the terrace beside the Moselle, subject to weather and availability at arrival — a simple yet scenic backdrop for the tasting.

THE ACCOMPANIMENT

Optional cheese and charcuterie

To round the tasting you can add a cheese and charcuterie platter, offered as boards sized for two or four people, for a savory counterpoint to the three wines.
