A tourist town

Saint-Émilion is a tourist town but, unlike some others, not overtly “in your face”. As you explore the streets you will find wine shops and bars, antique shops, art galleries, boulangeries and bookshops.

There are many opportunities to enjoy the fine wines including winery tours, tastings led by professionals where you can sample the Merlot with varieties of cheeses, gourmet picnics on a wine estate, or a blending lesson that allows you to create your own wine.

There are top-quality restaurants waiting for you in the town and the vineyards, if you prefer to enjoy your glass of wine with a good meal.
