Image of Sober, not of the place itself.

Documentary tradition attributes to Bishop Odoario of Lugo, active around the 8th century, the founding of Amandi during the early medieval repopulation of the Sil valley; the place-name would later come to designate the most highly prized wines of the comarca.
