Ox fillet

Hard stone that holds the secret of the past, I await your gaze to revive. Just as memories are the fossils that describe our past, dreams are the hope that exists as pure possibility. If you contemplate me you will understand our place on the planet. A design by Santos Bregaña under the watchful eye and advice of Bodega El Capricho.

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.

Enjoy our special trio of wines El Capricho, 2 red wines and 1 white wine from our own vineyards.

The salchichón is sold in pieces of about 500g. The ox meat is mixed with the meat of local Asturian-Celtic pigs to obtain a delicious farce with a slightly peppery taste, which makes the Spanish salami so unique. The product is air-dried according to the old Leonesian tradition.

Enjoy the cut of the noblest piece of beef and one that has the highest degree of maturity. The maturation is carried out for each piece according to a few individual parameters: These include breed, age, intramuscular fat, etc. All the Chuletas on offer have the El Capricho seal of quality. You always receive guaranteed quality - José Gordón stands for this with his name.

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.

¡No le quites el tártaro!... me decía mi padre cuando andaba con aquella barrica de nogal. Si te metías dentro era como si estuvieras observando el universo en una clara noche de verano; esa fina capa que se formaba, quizás por el tartárico, brillaba de una manera especial y aislaba sutilmente el vino de la madera. La cuba se llenaba con la uva de prieto picudo y mencía de la viña más alta que plantó mi abuelo Segundo Gordón, que fermentaba lentamente y a la vez de forma intensa, dando vinos frescos y ligeros, fáciles de beber, con una elegancia aterciopelada.
