What is Prosecco?

Hailed from Northeast Italy, Prosecco is a one of Italy’s finest sparkling wines. In the past, grapes that made this delicious bubbly were called both Prosecco and Glera. The thin-skinned grapes are green and gown in the Veneto and Fruiuli regions of Northern Italy. 

As you know, champagne is also a bubbly. So, why is Prosecco called a wine and not a champagne? Well, the major difference between Prosecco and other sparkling wines like Champagne is how the bubbles in the bottle are made. There are many different ways to get that CO2 into a bottle of wine. 

Champagne bubbles: The most expensive way to get a bottle of bubbly is through a technique called the traditional method. The winemaker fills a bottle with still, dry wine, and then adds yeast and sugar before it is sealed. As the yeast consumes the sugar, it gives off CO2. 

Prosecco bubbles: With Prosecco, this doesn’t happen in every bottle. Instead, it happens in a big tank. Wine is added to a pressure tank, then yeast and sugar added. When the desired pressure is reached in the tank, the wine is cooled. 

Prosecco keeps the grape’s perfume and freshness through this process.
