圣艾米伦辖区

葡萄栽培技术最早由罗马人引入到阿基坦地区(region of Aquitaine)这块肥沃的土地上，并在中世纪得到了发展。圣艾米伦区位于圣地亚哥－德－孔波斯特拉(Santiago de Compostela)朝圣之路，因地理位置优越而受益匪浅。从11世纪开始，这里便修建了大量教堂、修道院和济贫院。在12世纪英国统治期间，这里得到了“司法管辖区域”的特殊地位。大量的葡萄种植在这里形成了独特的景观，而且在乡镇和村庄里还有许多优美的历史古迹。

Viticulture was introduced to this fertile region of Aquitaine by the Romans, and intensified in the Middle Ages. The Saint-Emilion area benefited from its location on the pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela and many churches, monasteries and hospices were built there from the 11th century onwards. It was granted the special status of a 'jurisdiction' during the period of English rule in the 12th century. It is an exceptional landscape devoted entirely to wine-growing, with many fine historic monuments in its towns and villages.
