If you’re exploring Glera, you’re stepping into the heart of Italy’s sparkling world. Glera is the grape variety most closely associated with Prosecco, where it’s valued for its bright, fresh character and easy-drinking style. Typically grown in the north-eastern regions of Italy, this grape thrives in a climate that helps it retain lively acidity and express appealing fruit notes.

In the glass, Glera wines often show green apple, pear and hints of white flowers, with a gentle, refreshing finish. Depending on how the wine is made, you may also notice delicate flavours of citrus and a softer, rounded texture that makes it ideal for everyday celebrations.

Glera is wonderfully versatile. It pairs well with light appetisers, seafood and salads, and it’s also a brilliant match for anything that enjoys a bit of zest. If you like sparkling wines that feel crisp, fragrant and approachable, this grape is a great place to start exploring the range.
