The interiors maximize the contrast between tasteful contemporary design and rich historical detail, and feel chic but unpretentious.
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Set beside Saint-Emilion's ancient ramparts, the quiet street opens onto cobblestone alleys, wine cellars, and historic limestone facades.
The rooms
Four suites named after medieval gates pair exposed limestone and antique terracotta tiles with contemporary furnishings overlooking the ancient village rooftops.
The spa
A private wellness area inside the residence holds a sauna, a hammam, and a quiet treatment room for massage.
Dogs stay too.

A short walk away, the Michelin-starred dining room serves produce from the family farm alongside bottles from deep Bordeaux cellars.
How it began
