Casa Vinicola Luca is a family-run winery with a rich history spanning four generations of dedicated winemaking. Their passion for winemaking is deeply rooted in a strong connection to the Moldovan landscape and the region's ancient wine traditions. The journey of this vineyard began with the original winemakers of the Luca family, who, despite significant obstacles, were determined to pursue their dream of owning their own estate. Even in the most difficult times, including a deportation to a Siberian labor camp during the Soviet regime, the family held on to their passion and maintained their wine knowledge and skills for 40 years at a state-run winery. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, the younger generations took the reins and began breathing new life into the family business. In 2011, with pride, they launched the first Carpe Diem wines, and from that moment, they focused entirely on the future. Today, the talented winemaker and estate manager, Ion Luca Jr., is responsible for all aspects of the family business. With his expertise and leadership, they have successfully exported their wines to 12 countries across three continents. They proudly hold the title of the most awarded family vineyard in Moldova. At Casa Vinicola Luca, they strongly believe in the power of every sip of wine as an unforgettable experience. Therefore, they strive to use only the very best grapes and apply traditional winemaking techniques to create wines rich in character and flavor.
