International Prosecco Day (IPD)

International Prosecco Day is celebrated annually on August 13, honoring Italy’s beloved sparkling wine. Prosecco, made primarily from the Glera grape in the Veneto and Friuli regions, is known for its fresh, fruity flavors, delicate bubbles, and versatile style, ranging from dry (Brut) to sweeter (Extra Dry). It’s a favorite for celebrations, casual gatherings, or as a base for cocktails like the classic Bellini. To celebrate, you could host a Prosecco tasting, pair it with light appetizers like bruschetta or prosciutto, or experiment with Prosecco-based cocktails.
