However, the true fame of Saint-Emilion arrives in the 8th century with the arrival of Emilian, a hermit native of Vannes, which will become the name of the city; High place of pilgrimage and prayer, many religious orders were installed afterwards: the medieval city was born.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Jurisdiction of St Emilion (5500 ha) is located 40 km north-east of Bordeaux and extends over 9 communes of the Libournais. Since 1999, it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site for Cultural Landscapes: a remarkable historic wine-growing landscape that has survived and is still operating; exceptionally illustrating the cultivation of wine grapes in a precisely defined region.<\/p>\n<p>An exceptional territory registered as World Patrimony also implies great environmental responsabilities. All the wineries from Saint-Emilion have an official environnemental certification, and many commited initiatives are organised by the Instances and Collectivities (tree nurseries, commission, collaborative projects and trainings).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">One geographical area for two appellations, Saint Emilion and Saint Emilion Grand Cru. Since 1954, a decree manages a classification of the Saint-Emilion Grand Cru wines (class\u00e9 and premier grand cru classes), that is revised\/challenged every 10 years.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In Bordeaux, the notion of &#8220;terroir&#8221; is fundamental because it combines the elements of climate and soils, which gives to grapes, and therefore to wine, a unique, exceptional and recognizable character. Located on the 45th parallel, Saint Emilion enjoys a moderate ocean climate, with almost Mediterranean nuances.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Saint Emilion has 4 main types of soils: (1) the limestone plateau, (2) a vast terrace of silico-clayey gravels, (3) limestone and clay-limestone valleys, (4) sand-gravel stretches. The Saint-Emilion are blend wines using the traditional grape varieties of Bordeaux where Merlot represents 60% of the vineyards, alongside Cabernet Franc (30%), Cabernet Sauvignon and, more rarely, Malbec, Petit Verdot and Cam\u00e9n\u00e8re.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The wines of Saint Emilion are exclusively red wines, revealing a brilliant color, developing a palette of subtle aromas, a generous mouth to the noble texture, and a harmonious finish, aromatic and delicate.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-4 nonhundred-percent-fullwidth non-hundred-percent-height-scrolling\" style=\"--awb-border-radius-top-left:0px;--awb-border-radius-top-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-left:0px;\" ><div class=\"fusion-builder-row fusion-row\"><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-4 fusion_builder_column_1_1 1_1 fusion-one-full fusion-column-first fusion-column-last\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-column-wrapper-legacy\"><div class=\"fusion-aligncenter\"><a class=\"fusion-button button-flat fusion-button-default-size button-default fusion-button-default button-1 fusion-button-default-span fusion-button-default-type\" target=\"_self\" href=\"https:\/\/www.chateau-cantenac.fr\/en\/wines\/chateau-cantenac\/\"><i class=\"fa-wine-glass-alt fas button-icon-left\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span class=\"fusion-button-text\">Wines from this vineyard<\/span><\/a><\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":0,"parent":4243,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"100-width.php","meta":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.chateau-cantenac.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/4244"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.chateau-cantenac.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.chateau-cantenac.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.chateau-cantenac.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.chateau-cantenac.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4244"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.chateau-cantenac.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/4244\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5760,"href":"https:\/\/www.chateau-cantenac.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/4244\/revisions\/5760"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.chateau-cantenac.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/4243"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.chateau-cantenac.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4244"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
