Battle of the Wines took its initial inspiration from a 1224 poem La Bataille des Vins (Battle of the Wines) by 13th century Norman poet Henry d’Andeli. It tells the story of the first famous wine competition organised by the French King Philip Augustus, which drew over 70 wine samples mostly from northern and central France but some from as far away as Spain and Cyprus. Probably to the surprise of many, a sweet Cypriot wine widely believed to be an antecedent of modern Commandaria wines was the winner.
