Relais de Franc-Mayne—boutique hotel in Saint-Émilion and vintage wine
Relais de Franc-Mayne is a boutique hotel in Saint-Emilion, unusual and original, with a top vintage wine.
The two of the wines from the hotel’s vineyard have been awarded the “AOC Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé” label, which designates one of France’s finest wines: Château Franc Mayne and Les Cèdres. The wine storage for the 7-hectare vineyard is in an underground gallery that was once part of a quarry; this area is open to visitors and wine tastings.
Outside, grape vines line the edges of a natural pool, where you can relax in the heart of the property.
Regarding accommodations, the hotel’s 18th century architecture has been carefully preserved and restored, and the room décor features a subtle originality that tastefully mixes bright colors and rich materials in a joyfully unconventional style.
Relais de Franc-Mayne—a delightful escape into comfort and fine wine in the heart of a great “Grand Cru” Saint-Émilion vineyard.
