About Lacueva
Winemaker David Carrascosa followed his family winemaking passion keeping traditional sparkling wine methods.
The grapes come from vineyards in the Ciguela Valley in the central part of Spain. Winters are cold, with temperatures often going below the freezing point, while the summers are warm and dry. This Methode Traditionnelle has unique characteristics due to the native Spanish varietals and the Mediterranean climate.
The soils are rich in limestone and poor in organic materials, producing low yields. Aging takes place for at least 18 months in the subterranean caves under the winery at a controlled temperature of 57 F. Only a small dosage is used and the bottles are disgorged on order for shipment.
