Discovering the Pearl of the Moselle in Luxembourg

 

On Saturday 8 July, Francorchamps Motors Luxembourg was delighted to invite its customers on a special and unique tour. For a day, 10 crews joined us for a trip to the heart of Luxembourg's most beautiful landscapes, to discover 'The Pearl of the Moselle' and the vineyards of Remich. The trip took on a gastronomic and culinary dimension. The participants had the chance to have lunch at the home of Léa Linster, Luxembourg chef and the first woman in the world to win the prestigious "Bocuse d'Or" gastronomic competition. Léa shared her know-how, her experience and the excellence of her cuisine with us in a convivial and privileged moment. All in an idyllic place on the heights of Remich, with a view over the entire Moselle valley.

During the 250-kilometre trip, our customers passed some of Luxembourg's most emblematic locations, starting with the castle of Useldange, built in the 1100s. The journey then continued along the shores of the Sûre, alongside the German border. A few kilometres further on, we continued our tour in Germany by reaching Saarburg, the "little Venice on the banks of the Saar", to discover its surrounding countryside.

The vineyard roads became more and more distinct as our convoy approached Remich "the Pearl of the Moselle" and its vineyards. So it was time to stop off at Léa Linster's house. After this culinary interlude and a most memorable experience, our group hit the road again, passing through vineyards and valleys, in breathtaking landscapes. At the end of the day, our Ferraristi were able to admire the Grand-Château d'Ansembourg, opened in 1639, the last stage of our Rallye "Discovering the Pearl of the Moselle" before the final arrival at the dealership.
