The Birth of Denarius Wine: Passion and Innovation


Denarius Wine was born from Marcela Champion’s belief that the world is ready to discover one of Europe’s best kept wine secrets: the sparkling wines of Moravia.

For centuries, Moravian winemakers have combined artisanal tradition with modern innovation, crafting wines of remarkable quality, authenticity, and character. Marcela saw an opportunity to bring this heritage forward through a brand that honors history while speaking to today’s premium wine consumer.


Denarius Wine introduces naturally sparkling Moravian wines made with Natur CO₂ Wine Gas technology, a process that captures natural CO₂ from wine fermentation and reuses it to create fine, elegant bubbles. This creates a rare meeting point between old world winemaking, modern sustainability, and scientific advancement.

Our mission is to bring exceptional Moravian sparkling wines to the world while prioritizing sustainability, craftsmanship, and a pioneering spirit. Every bottle tells a global story of dedication, heritage, innovation, and passion.

Marcela Champion The Heritage Keeper and Global Strategist

Born in former Czechoslovakia, Marcela Champion grew up in the heart of Moravian Tuscany, a region where wine is more than a craft. It is heritage, culture, celebration, and a legacy passed from one generation to the next. During her early years, life behind the Iron Curtain made international travel nearly impossible, creating in her a deep desire to see the world and one day share the richness of her homeland with others.

When the communist regime fell, new possibilities opened. Marcela pursued opportunities abroad, studying and working across Austria, Spain, and eventually the United States, where she built a career in international marketing, branding, and global business development.

Throughout her career, she has led demanding projects, managed international initiatives, and organized championship level events. Her strength lies in connecting culture, storytelling, and strategy, turning ideas into brands with emotional depth and commercial potential.

Yet her deepest passion remained rooted in Moravia: its vineyards, traditions, folklore, history, and quiet excellence. Marcela founded Denarius Wine to bring Moravian sparkling wine to the international stage and introduce the world to a region whose quality, authenticity, and innovation deserve global recognition.
