About the Winemakers
Leila + Crystal Davis + Juliette Menneteau | Foreign Friends
Foreign Friends is the brainchild of sisters Leila and Crystal Davis, along with their close friend Juliette Menneteau - a trio brought together by a love of wine, travel, and good times. Leila, with a background in microbiology, cut her teeth at Domenica before vintages in Beaujolais, the Jura, and Pipers Brook in Tassie. Crystal, the marketing and operations whiz, balances winemaking life with a career in advertising, while Juliette’s deep knowledge of wine distribution rounds out the team.
Their vision is simple - to bring all friends, old and new, together over a bottle of wine. From handcrafted wines to curated travel experiences, they invite you to join them on a journey that transcends borders and embraces the richness of different cultures and moments in time. Wherever you find yourself, the friendship travels.
