By letters patent dated June 7, 1289, Edward I, King of England and of Aquitaine fixed the boundary between Saint- Emilion and Pomerol at the « Tailhayhat » stream, from which the château gets its name. Purchased in 1932 by Philippe Nebout, the estate has been run by a company created by the Nebout heirs since 1981. Luc is the current winemaker and belongs to the 3rd Nebout generation at Tailhas. The Château du Tailhas vineyard covers 11 hectares in a single unit located on the southern slopes of the Pomerol plateau, bordering on the commune of Saint-Emilion to the east. It is therefore contiguous to the grands crus of that appellation, in the Figeac region.

The first traces of Château Soutard date back to 1513 with the mention of the bourdieu de Mayne de Soutard. Jean Couture, Jurat de Saint-Emilion, bought the property in 1699. His daughter Marie built the Château in 1741. Soutard's vocation as a winegrower really took off under Jean Combret de Faurie, Marie Couture's son. He devoted himself entirely to working the vines. Soutard became one of the first châteaux to have vines planted in rows. Passed on to Michel des Ligneris in 1919, Château Soutard was run by his descendants for almost a century.

40km east of Bordeaux, Saint Emilion is an architectural gem set against a backdrop of vineyards, of internationally renowned wines. The town was created around the cave where Saint Emilion, a Breton hermit who withdrew from society in the 8th century, lived, in a cave carved into the limestone cliff. The city has many listed monuments including the collegiate church, Doyenne cloister, the monolithic church hollow into the rock, Roy Tower. It has steep streets called tertres and escalettes. Since 1999, the Jurisdiction of Saint Emilion has been listed on the list of UNESCO World Heritage sites as a “cultural landscape”.

During the 12th and 13th centuries, the city of Saint-Émilion was endowed with an imposing system of enclosure of about two kilometres in length composed of numerous fencing elements: cre'neaux, hourds, ma^chicoulis, a parapet walk and six medieval gates. To the east of the city, the Porte Brunet, almost intact, is the best preserved of all.

The ramparts of Saint-Emilion were commissioned by England in the 12th century to protect the prosperous village of Saint-Emilion. This fortification wall can also be seen as a ceremonial and prestigious wall, the primary purpose of which would have been to show off the village's power rather than to protect it. In any case, it must have been necessary to pay a tax to enter the village within its walls, representing a new source of wealth. The inhabitants began by digging deep ditches all around the village themselves. Using the stones they dug out, they built a surrounding wall covering more than 18 hectares and running for around 1.5 km around the village. This wall was probably flanked by seven gates and small defensive towers, and a sentry walk linked the gates together.
