A rainy day in Saint-Émilion might just be the best kind. This medieval UNESCO World Heritage village was literally built underground — and that's where its greatest treasures lie. Descend into ancient limestone cellars, join a guided tour of the monolithic church, sit down for a private wine tasting in a historic château, or linger over a long lunch at a gastronomic table. Just 35 minutes from Bordeaux, the Grand Saint-Émilionnais has an answer for every grey sky.
