Victor Fernández de Manzanos

The Climb

Wine business rewards continuity, and Victor Fernández de Manzanos has worked inside that rhythm since 2010. In the dual post of CEO and joint owner of Manzanos Wines, and as winemaker at Bodegas Manzanos, he sits between commercial oversight and cellar work. That pairing matters: one role sets direction, the other tests it in the glass. The result is a career built on sustained responsibility rather than display.

Today

The same structure still holds. Victor Fernández de Manzanos continues as CEO and joint owner of Manzanos Wines, while also working as winemaker at Bodegas Manzanos. His own description of the company is framed less by scale than by the people who keep it running: “It has never changed, I am happy to hire people that can make a living out of the profits that our brand generates. We are a close team that treats each other as family.” In practice, that points to a house built on shared work, mutual dependence, and the idea that the value created in the winery should reach the people doing the work.
