A real example of innovation with a wide range, not only of wines, but also of spirits and sparkling wines, importing and applying all the necessary methods, such as "champenoise". Antonio Guerra was a pharmacist and a real visionary, who was able to understand and value the potential of the vine- yards of Bierzo, far before the appellations, the architectural & design wineries, the wine tours and the poetic back labels even existed. Applying revolutionary winemaking techniques and marketing, when the term wasn't probably even invented, Vinos Guerra showed the virtues of the wines from Bierzo to the world. Wines produced with old vineyards of Bierzo, along the Pilgrim Way to Santiago de Compostela, on sunny slopes that conceal Roman and Visigothic treasures. An emotional marketing always combined with the quality of the many products of the winery.

In keeping with our own sustainable pursuits we work with growers who make wine with integrity and have respect for the land.

These wines are labour intensive and made by hand, some by conventional means, others by adopting a minimal intervention approach. Some may look cloudy, but that’s just leaving the good stuff in! It is an eclectic mix of what we believe goes well with our menu and tastes good too. Mostly these wines are fresh and alive, and love being enjoyed with or without food to show off their personality.

  • 250 Years Since the First Rosé Champagne
    250 years since the first rosé champagne Ruinart, the first established Champagne House, founded in 1729, has been shipping rosé champagne since 1764. The House’s account book is the proof. On 14 March 1764, it is written that there was a shipment of «a basket of 120 bottles, 60 bottles of which were Oeil de Perdrix». What is the connection between birds of the Gallinaceae family and the early history of the oldest Champagne House? In fact, the term «Oeil de Perdrix» means a colour which could be described as a delicate pink with coppery reflections. There’s no longer any doubt. Ruinart shipped its first bottles of rosé champagne in 1764. 250 years : such a fabulous anniversary in so many ways, an historic date which links Ruinart forever to the history of champagne. The account books, various correspondence and the accounts of the heads of the House have allowed us to discover a multitude of varieties and oenological trials in search of taste, flavour and the ideal colour. What was in all probability a rosé from maceration at the beginning would then evolve to become a blended rosé. Ruinart explored various ways of obtaining a coloured champagne, for example by using the colouring of some elderberries. The palette of colours for these wines was very large. There were a number of terms to define them in French: roset, oeil de perdrix, rozet, paillé (straw), clairet (pale wine) and even cerise (cherry). Towards the end of the 18th century, the expression «Oeil de Perdrix» disappeared in favour of names closer to those we use: rozet and then rosé.

  • The Beverage from France That Conquered the World
    The beverage from France that conquered the world Without doubt, the history of champagne and sparkling wine is tied to France, and its origins to the northern French region of Champagne. England, however, was producing bottles strong enough to contain carbonated wines as early as the 17th century. In the interest of preserving trees, the use of wood in the process of making glass had been prohibited, and the glass resulting from the use of coal rendered dark, thick-walled bottles which naturally withstood greater internal pressure. Yet the starting point remains France, where the wine was most likely brought from and Champagne, from where it was later purposely ordered. Records remain of English-French wine trade. According to one plausible theory, the high sugar-contact wine was sealed and stored, after a noisy fermentation, in strong wooden barrels. When several years later the cork was removed, a sparkling, pleasantly-fragranced beverage was discovered. There is another legend, according to which the discovery of sparkling wine is connected with the late harvesting of the grapes. In the region near Johannesburg, a church belonging to, but located approximately 150 km from the archbishopric, had to wait for the bishop’s permission before harvesting. Riding on horseback, the messenger arrived three weeks late with the permission, but in the meantime, the grapes had over-ripened. Contrary to custom, the grapes were harvested anyway, producing a wonderful, bubbly wine-consumed as a magic elixir. It is likely that France has been storing and fermenting wine in barrels or bottles since the 16th century.
