Explore the medieval village of Saint Emilion and experience a wine tasting session in a Grand Cru estate.

Classified as UNESCO World Heritage for its natural landscape, Saint Emilion village is made up of fascinating Romanesque churches and ruins stretching all along steep and narrow streets. The Romans were the ones who originally planted the vineyards as early as the 2nd century and in some estates, you'll see reminders of the Roman techniques of wine planting. You'll go for a wine tasting session in a Grand Cru estate of Saint Emilion.

Our guide was Luigi, who is a sommelier. He was very thorough about explaining the region/terroir, grape types, French appellations and rules for classifying the wines. The wines were Grand Cru and tasted very good. Luigi even gave us a fun test during our return. Highly recommended.
