Puisseguin Saint-Emilion
Saint-Emilion has a great status in the region. Partly because of the picturesque center of the village itself. Here you can have a very good lunch on the fantastic central square and there are many boutique shops where you can buy the best red wines . However, Puissequin is a separate section located higher up along the village itself. Previously, when the legislation was made, a number of vineyards were left out that were not allowed to call themselves Saint-Emilion.
Because there were many victims, French wine legislation decided that the surrounding villages could use this name. And so wineries such as Grand Barrail de Bernon became a Saint-Emilion, in this case a Puissequin-Saint-Emilion. The winery is one of the highlights of this region. It is known for its high-quality wines that can be aged for a long time.
