Buying Saint Emilion in the UK :: St Emilion is a fine French red wine from the heart of France (608 words)
Saint Emilion is an appelation within the Bordeaux region of South West France that produces some of the most glorious and prestigious wines that the French have to offer.
When I drink fine Saint Emilions, especially Premier Cru varieties I am reminded of the smell of the crypts in ancient cathedrals, and the soft smooth tannins and long delicate finish mean that the experience is often very long lasting and memorable.
The vineyards of Saint Emilion are generally hilly and soils in the region are predominantly calcium based, which encourage the Merlot grape to develop a concentration and ripeness that is the cornerstone of the great wines produce in the region.
