Nice steep slope on cobbles, if you are in the area, very nice to visit the town of St Emilion (macaroon stop at the top).

The village is beautifully situated on a hill and it is definitely a bit spicy. Especially as you drive on cobblestones in the middle of the village, amid lots of traffic and tourists. There is a better variant parallel!
