Late autumn is a fabulous time to visit the Saint Emilion area. The weather is mild, and the autumn colours create a beautiful backdrop for a leisurely tour through the vineyards and Saint Emilion itself.
Being an all-year-round tourist destination, the majority of chateaux and restaurants of Saint Emilion remain open but are obviously less busy now than the summer months for those wanting a more relaxed, personal wine tour experience.
At Merlot et Moi we offer bespoke wine tours, personally tailored to you. Head to the link in our bio for more information 🍷

The Ban des Vendanges, Saint-Émilion’s Autumn festival, is a stunning celebration of our city’s rich wine heritage 🍇

The ‘Jurade,’ Saint-Émilion’s historic wine brotherhood, parades through the streets in traditional crimson robes, symbolising centuries of winemaking tradition. This annual festival, held every third Sunday in September, marks the start of the harvest with processions, wine tastings, and festive dinners 🎉
 
As part of the celebration, I had the pleasure of attending the Jurade dinner as a guest of , alongside the lovely honorary guests from Jersey, Dominic and Sophie Jones ( and ). The evening was filled with excellent food and, naturally, a selection of exceptional Saint-Émilion wines 🍷
 
It’s a magical time of year here, and I can’t wait for the next harvest!
