Saint-Émilion is a key wine town in the Libournais district of Bordeaux, important in terms of both quality and quantity. It lies just a few miles north of the Dordogne, in the final stages of the river's journey from the hills of the Massif Central to the Gironde estuary. The town is renowned as much for its beautiful buildings and scenery as for its wine. Its steep, narrow, cobbled streets, overlooked by its Romanesque church and the iconic 13th-century Tour du Roy tower are a reminder of the town's long history.

Intense colour, with violet and purple hues to the fore. The brightness and liveliness of the wine speak of its good vinification, its youthfulness, and convey what the winery is seeking to achieve: to take the grape from the vine to the bottle.
Brilliant sheen. Gold colour with bright glints at the edge. Fresh, clean aroma on the nose with soft, yet intense, fragrances, mingling the fruit and flower aromas. Long and intense.
This is a wine which identifies itself as a typical Rioja crianza wine with the particular features of the terroir of Aldeanueva de Ebro and of the Real Rubio winery. The graciano grape combined with the classic tempranillo give us a wine with lively colours and solid acidity.
Pale yellow with greenish glints and a bright sheen.Very intense and elegant aroma. Predominantly citrus fruits, lime and grapefruit, with characteristic, varietal herbaceous nuances and floral aromas coming through.
Real Rubio wines are balanced, fresh, persistent, obtained from healthy, perfectly ripened grapes. Intense colour, with violet and purple hues to the fore. The brightness and liveliness of the wine speak of its good vinification, its youthfulness, and convey what the winery is seeking to achieve: to take the grape from the vine to the bottle.
Good depth, garnet colour, with light brick-red hues and bright ruby glints. On the nose, from the first moment you can appreciate the aromas from the French oak, (cereal, toast, …) which give way to very ripe fruit, with vanilla touches.
