DO FERREIRO | Meaño, Rías Baixas

To speak of Gerardo Méndez is to speak of Albariño grapes. Gerardo Méndez, the founder of Rías Baixas denomination of origin, works from home, from his laboratory/winery.

His vineyards, the oldest in the denomination of origin, are in an unbeatable location in terms of altitude and orientation.

He seeks purity and authenticity in his wines, and he instills them with a strong personality (indigenous yeasts, etc.).

However good his wines are, though, Gerardo Méndez is an even more wonderful person.
