Saint-Emilion

Less than an hour from the boutique Hotel Novalis in Gradignan, Saint-Émilion, a UNESCO world heritage jewel, opens its doors to you. This medieval village, nestled in the heart of vineyards, is famous for its exceptional wines and picturesque architecture.

Strolling through the cobbled streets, discover impressive historical monuments, such as the Monolithic Underground Church, carved entirely into the rock. The Tour du Roy offers a breathtaking panoramic view of the vineyards and the roofs of the village. Saint-Émilion is also a foodie's paradise, with its many shops offering macarons, a local specialty, and its gourmet restaurants.

Wine lovers will appreciate the tastings offered by the numerous wine châteaux that dot the region. A guided cellar tour is a must-do experience to understand the winemaking process and history of these world-famous vineyards.

Saint-Émilion, with its harmonious blend of heritage, culture and gastronomy, is an unforgettable stopover in your discovery of the Bordeaux region.
