Saint-Emilion is a commune in the Gironde department in Aquitaine in south-western France. The medieval village of St-Emilion perches above vineyards renowned for producing full-bodied, deeply coloured red wines and is easily the most alluring of all the region's wine towns.
Saint-Emilion's history goes back to the prehistoric times and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, with fascinating Romanesque churches and ruins stretching all along steep and narrow streets.
