Bodegas Marqués de Vizhoja a Family Owned Winery Founded in 1968
Bodegas Marqués de Vizhoja is a family owned winery founded in 1968 by Mariano Peláez. The inspiration came when he decided to convert a tobacco drying facility into a wine cellar and start producing wines. The winery is located in Finca La Moreira, in a subregion of the DO Rías Baixas del Condado do Tea. The vineyards at Bodegas Marqués de Vizhoja are on a slope near the Miño River bordering Portugal. Mariano is a founding member of the Regulatory Council of DO Rías Baixas and the winery is now managed by his sons, Jorge and Javier Peláez.
The company philosophy at Bodegas Marqués de Vizhoja involves the belief that wines are made in the vineyard rather than the cellar, thus they emphasize importance on viticultural practices.
