Tasting Notes

■ Appearance: A bright and clear amber (harking back to its ancient origins) with a deep golden to orange hue.

■ Aroma: Evolving complex aromas of dried apricots, candied orange peel, wild thyme, and chamomile tea, with a subtle hint of acacia honey.

■ Palate: Possesses a remarkably rich and profound texture, beautifully uplifted by a vibrant acidity. Upon tasting, layers of dried stone fruits and sweet spices unfold, while a gentle tannic grip leads to a long, savory, and mineral-rich finish.

The Story

A field blend that weaves regional history and an uncompromising natural philosophy
Founded by Zmago Petrič, "Guerila" is a symbol of Slovenia's uncompromising biodynamic winemaking. This wine pays homage to the region's historic field blends, uniting Slovenia's indigenous star varieties like Zelen and Pinela with the structure of Rebula and the aromatic charm of Malvazija. It presents a symphony of local varieties built for long-term aging.

Cultivated under strict Demeter standards, hand-picked grapes are destemmed and then spontaneously fermented with wild yeasts. After extended skin maceration, the wine is aged in traditional large barrels. It is bottled unfined and unfiltered, with minimal sulfur dioxide added, allowing the terroir to be captured in its living form.

Food Pairing

The delicate tannins and robust structure of this amber wine make it incredibly versatile, beautifully bridging seafood to poultry and savory meat dishes. Recommended pairings:

  • Roasted Pork with Apricot Glaze: The gentle tannins cut through the rich, fatty meat, while the apricot notes in the dish perfectly echo the wine's complex dried fruit aromas.
  • Aged Hard Cheeses and Charcuterie: The wine's rich umami components serve as a superb counterpoint to the salinity and crystallized textures of aged cheeses and cured meats.
  • Hearty Mushroom Tagliatelle: The Retro blend’s earthy and herbal profile harmonizes wonderfully with the deep, foresty, and buttery flavors of wild mushrooms.

Serving Temperature: 12℃〜14℃ (Enjoy at this temperature range to bring out its true richness)

Vineyard & Terroir

The Terroir of Vipava Valley (Planina), Slovenia

The vineyards are carved into steep slopes composed of flysch (a fragile ancient mixture of marl and sandstone locally known as "lapor"). This mineral-rich soil, combined with the intensely purifying wind known as burja, naturally limits yields, concentrating deep energy and flavor in the grapes.

"Guerila's 'Retro' is a wine that makes you pause and think. Pouring this living, breathing amber wine for our customers here in Yokohama is always thrilling, as it perfectly captures the wild, untamed energy of the Vipava Valley in a glass."
