Our wine cellar

Valdecedín is the highest plot with more than 800 meters. At the top of a small hill, it receives gusts of wind and suffers frost first. Its cherry red color brings back memories of my childhood when I took care of the more than 50 cherry trees that were next to the vineyard. It has been 90 years since Segundo Gordón planted this vineyard of more than one hectare in centennial land that gives it a serious character and promises a long life.

This wine is the result of the reactivation of old vineyards, most of which are over a hundred years old.

The result is a fine and fruity wine, where red and ripe fruit and wild aromas stand out. The wine matures for 12 months in French oak and is the ideal accompaniment to our meat.

Enjoy our great white wine from our own vineyard La Uta, really fruity and pleasant taste.
