History: From one of the oldest grapes grown in Italy, this big, full body style Prosecco, but now re named Glera, is made in the old world style and traditions of northern Italian spumante wines. The vineyard for this classic and old world style Prosecco were founded in the 9th century,and viticulture dates back to ancient times; evidenced by the work of man who has, over the centuries, sculpted the sunniest slopes of Veneto, where the Prosecco grape originated. The exact origins are somewhat of a mystery, but in fact, already known as the pucino in the time of the Roman Empire. The empress Livia Augusta was particularly fond of the wine from this grape and was known to consume large quantities daily. Prosecco is a vigorous and hardy vine, with nut colored shoots and quite large, loosely-packed winged clusters of golden yellow berries nestled amongst bright green leaves.
