Saint-Émilion hosted the Tour de France once before. In 1996, the medieval wine town was used as finish in a 63.5 kilometer ITT from Bordeaux. Jan Ullrich took the spoils, but it was not enough to win the GC the next day in Paris. The German finished second behind Bjarne Ris, while Richard Virenque rounded out that year’s podium.
The vineyard setting of the race from Libourne to Saint-Émilion also reminds of the 2010 Tour de France. The Bordeaux-Pauillac ITT of that year was won by Fabian Cancellara.
