The story
The history of Prosecco began in the Conegliano-Valdobbiadene area, where wine has been made since ancient times. The earliest documentation of Prosecco dates to 1772, when in Volume 7 of Il Giornale d'Italia Francesco Maria Malvolti praised the quality of the grapes and production methods used in the area. Over the years, the focus on wine among local producers has ensured high- quality bottlings with important recognitions awarded to Prosecco.
