Saint Emilion Grand Cru – Visit

Short visit to Saint Christophe des Bardes (Saint Emilion grand Cru). Beautiful Terraces vineyard on a Clay/Limestone soil.

Wine Tasting with an old school mate working at the Tour Saint Christophe (left) and the Wine maker (right):

Here you can see the different terrace layers:

See the impressive Limestone bedrock (roche mere), where the vine roots go get the water digging within the layers.

Quick lunch in Saint Emilion medieval city.

Some small vineyards lost in the village. See the impressive Rocks!

Nice view from the famous monolothic church of Saint Emilion (built in the rocks after VIII th century!)
