{"title":"Château de Schengen","description":"Château de Schengen is one of the most important wineries on the Luxembourg Moselle and is proud to own vineyards in the region\u0026#39;s finest growing areas. A Schengen gem, the Thill winery, located in the picturesque village of Schengen, is originally a traditional family business with a history stretching back almost a century. Today, the estate is managed by Caves Bernard-Massard and the Clasen family, preserving its authentic character, which is closely linked to the Schengen region. A large portion of the estate\u0026#39;s vineyards was purchased from the former owners of Schengen Castle after the Second World War. The label, featuring a drawing of the castle made by Victor Hugo during a visit, commemorates them.","products":[{"product_id":"riesling-chateau-de-schengen","title":"Riesling Château de Schengen","description":"\u003cp\u003eRiesling from the Luxembourg Moselle — stylistically closely related to its German neighbor, but with its own character: somewhat softer in acidity, aromatically clearer and more fruit-oriented.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eChâteau de Schengen\u003c\/strong\u003e is located right at the tripoint of Germany, France, and Luxembourg, not far from the town that gave its name to the Schengen Agreement.
