Bodegas Peláez
Description
Data of interest
Bodegas Peláez (Grajal de la Ribera, León) has a great family tradition behind it. Now led by Ángel Peláez, 3rd generation, it was in the 1920s of the last century when his grandfather Baltasar Peláez began with the ancient trade of arriero: he made wine that he later transported by cart and mules for sale in the mountains of León. With the help of his children, Baltasar built an underground winery in 1950, where the Peláez family continues to produce their wines to this day. In 2004, the family expanded the facilities with the construction of a new winery for bottling and aging.
Bodegas Peláez produces white, rosé, and red wines, preserving the essence of the three varieties they work with: prieto picudo, verdejo, and albarín. They have 7 hectares of their own vineyards and control an additional 42 hectares. With this raw material, they produce the 4 brands that make up their portfolio: the white Airad, Senoel (available in rosé and young red versions), 3 Almas (the only aged red wine), and the innovative Nanay, a semi-sweet white made from prieto picudo. In total, they produce 250,000 bottles annually, destined entirely for the national market.
