Prosecco DOC is a white, Italian sparkling wine made with at least 85% Glera grapes and comes in four levels, from the driest to the sweetest: Brut, Extra Dry, Dry and Demi-Sec. It is very versatile; it can be consumed on its own or incorporated into cocktails. Real Italian Prosecco bottles are labelled with the acronyms DOC (Denominazione di Origine Controllata) and DOCG (Denominazione di Origine Controllata e Garantita). These certifications are a guarantee of quality and authenticity.

TRIESTE – LIVELY
Trieste is the city of wind and sea, where cultures meet in a European flavoured melting pot. The wind is a key element of Trieste’s most extraordinary event, the Barcolana, which the Prosecco DOC and the consortium have always supported. The city is famous for its inlets that allow spectators to see the boats chasing each other in a dance of sparkle and bubbles!

The province of Trieste extends along a small strip of land in the southeastern extremity of Friuli Venezia Giulia, between the Adriatic Sea and the border with Slovenia. The peculiarity of the environment, the treasures of history and art and the distinctly Central European character make it an extraordinary destination, which in the past enchanted and inspired important writers such as Rainer Maria Rilke, James Joyce, and Italo Svevo.
