Located on the right bank of the Gironde estuary, in Libourne, Saint-Émilion is a name famous for its wines and its monolithic church. The village and its surroundings were listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1999. The vineyards of Saint-Emilion are at the origin of great red wines made from the Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc grape varieties. The red wines are classified into four appellations: St Emilion, St Emilion Grand Cru, St Emilion Grand Cru Classé and St Emilion 1er Grand Cru Classé. This classification is renewed every ten years, unlike the classification of Médoc wines, which has been unchanged since 1855.
