Adrian McManus is from the UK but has been living in Galicia since 1991. In 2002 he began writing for Living Spain Magazine, at the time the UK’s definitive publication on Spain and all things Spanish. Following the publication of his 2007 article on Cambados and its famous Fiesta del Albariño, he was invited by the Most Serene Order of Albariño Wine to take the solemn oath of Knight of Albariño Wine. That honour has been shared with only a handful of other foreigners to date: General de Gaulle of France, President Juan Perón of Argentina and Sarah Jane Evans MW.
