Frequently Asked Questions

What is Glera wine?

Glera wine is primarily associated with the celebrated sparkling wine known as Prosecco. Glera is the primary grape variety used to produce this effervescent delight. Originating from the Veneto and Friuli Venezia Giulia regions of Italy, Glera has been cultivated for hundreds of years. The wine is renowned for its light body, fresh apple and pear aromas, and a hint of citrusy undertones. Its soft bubbles and relatively low alcohol content make it a go-to choice for many looking for a refreshing drink that's less potent than other sparkling wines.

Which wine regions make the best Glera wine?

The best Glera wines are primarily produced in the northeastern regions of Italy, particularly Veneto and Friuli Venezia Giulia. The Valdobbiadene and Conegliano areas within Veneto have particularly high reputations, often being referred to as the heartland of Prosecco production. The unique terroir of these regions, combined with the temperate climate, provides the ideal conditions for Glera grapes to thrive, yielding wines with distinct freshness and flavor profiles.

What are the most popular Glera wines?

The most popular Glera wines are those labeled as Prosecco DOC and Prosecco Conegliano-Valdobbiadene Superiore DOCG. These classifications ensure that the wine meets strict production criteria and originates from specific regions within Italy. The Prosecco Superiore from the hilly regions of Conegliano and Valdobbiadene are especially sought after due to their refined characteristics and nuanced flavors. Additionally, Prosecco Rose, a relatively new addition combining Glera and Pinot Nero, is gaining traction among wine aficionados.

What are the best value Glera wines?

While there are numerous premium Proseccos from esteemed vineyards, many value-driven Glera wines deliver exceptional quality at a more affordable price point. Prosecco DOC, being more widely produced than its DOCG counterpart, often offers excellent value for money. When shopping, look out for wines from reputable producers who prioritize sustainable farming and traditional wine-making methods. These wines often strike a balance between quality and affordability.

What are the foods best paired with Glera wines?

Glera wines, with their fresh and fruity profiles, are incredibly versatile in food pairings. They perfectly complement antipasti, especially seafood-based ones like calamari or shrimp cocktail. Their acidity and effervescence also make them ideal for pairing with fried foods, as the bubbles help cut through the grease. For main courses, light pasta dishes, risottos, or seafood fare like scallops and grilled fish go splendidly with Glera. Moreover, for those with a sweet tooth, Prosecco and fruit-based desserts or pastries create a harmonious match, enhancing the dining experience.
