The 20 Best Proseccos to Drink in 2024

Prosecco is a big part of our American wine drinking culture these days. It’s been here for quite some time, but only in the last decade or so have we come to embrace this northern Italian bubbly. Whether it’s casual bottles from the larger Prosecco DOC or more focused offerings from the smaller Conegliano Valdobbiadene DOCG (a UNESCO World Heritage Site), we’re enjoying this wine for brunch, lunch, dinner, or just ‘cause.

And since 2020, the region has entered a new pink category into the mix. With the addition of Pinot Noir (Pinot Nero in Italian) to Glera (the Prosecco grape), a new fruit-forward depth can be achieved in Prosecco Rosé.

We love Prosecco for its soft bubbles, its bright, lively, and laid-back personality — much like the wonderful people of the region it calls home — and, of course, for its reasonable price point. Ready for each and every drinking occasion this year may throw your way, here are 20 of the best Prosecco brands to drink in 2024.

The Best Overall Prosecco

Avissi Prosecco NV

This is one of the most affordable, quality-driven Proseccos we tasted. It’s made with grapes sourced from small plots across the Prosecco region and it’s a gem. The wine is soft and easy on the palate with good fruit depth, frothy bubbles, and just the right amount of sweetness.

Luna Nuda Prosecco Treviso NV

Luna Nuda is known for its wines in the Alto Adige region of northern Italy, so it makes sense that it also makes some Prosecco, a region just to the east, for its lineup .

Voga is all about style. The bottle has a VIP-section design and the wine inside is crowd-pleasing all day long. It’s subtle on the nose and textured on the palate with a slight grip. Pour it in some flutes for a group toast or serve it in a spritz for your next aperitivo hour.

Andreola Aldaina al Mas Valdobbiadene Rive di Guia Extra Brut 2023

In the DOCG of Valdobbiadene, tucked into the hills of the Prosecco DOC zone in northeastern Italy, they have what’s called a rive system. A “rive” means commune and is used to showcase a village’s sense of place, and there are 43 different rives across the region. This Prosecco comes from Rive di Guia and is a shining example of how balanced and structured Prosecco can be. The nose offers bright wafts of citrus fruit and pear. On the palate, it’s a seriously balanced wine with an angular acidity, great concentration of fruit, and a mineral finish.

The Bolla family began making sparkling wine for the urban markets in the late 1930s. The first bottle of sparkling it made, Marca Oro, is still in production today.

FAQ

What is Prosecco?

Prosecco is a sparkling wine made in northeast Italy, specifically from the Veneto and Friuli-Venezia Giulia wine regions. The wines are mostly crafted from the Glera grape, which is required to make up at least 85 percent of the wine. Winemakers in the region use the Charmant method, also known as the tank method, to impart the wine’s signature bubbles.

How much is a good bottle of Prosecco?

While Prosecco prices can range, we recommend seeking out a bottle around at least $12.

Is Prosecco dry or sweet?

While often thought of as sweeter than Champagne, most Prosecco is dry or off-dry.

What does brut mean in Prosecco?

The term “brut” means that the Prosecco is very dry — or, in other words, that there is very little sugar left in the wine.
