Amizade is a collaboration between Do Ferreiro and De Maison Selections. We have been interested in Galicia for quite some time and we were left with one last unrepresented D.O. in the region: Monterrei. Now our collection is complete with Amizade.
Galicia is a difficult terrain to maneuver without the help of an insider. It was through the relationship with Gerardo Mendez of Do Ferreiro that we were fortunate enough to meet Ramon Losada of D. Ventura. Today that relationship has continued with Gerardo looking to new frontiers. He was interested in creating a wine just for us that we could use as our house wine from Galicia, one that would represent our longstanding affection for Galicia. Amizade is the name of this project, the word is Galician for “friendship”.
