A Laithwaites-exclusive Prosecco DOC: 100% Glera from the Veneto, tank method, 10.5% ABV. Creamy bubbles carry ripe apple, pear and lemon to a dry, gently rounded finish. Rated 3.9 across 1,700+ Vivino tastings of the label. An aperitivo-hour fizz.
Ripe orchard fruit and citrus over a creamy mousse: Laithwaites' own datasheet and roughly 1,700 Vivino ratings of the label tell the same story about this Glera.
Ripe apple and pear lead, the tree-fruit family Vivino drinkers cite most on this label: 199 mentions across 395 written reviews of the core Prosecco. Behind the orchard fruit sit the white flowers and fresh peach that Direct Wines' US tasting sheet records for the same bottling. A clean, primary Glera nose, with no oak and only the faint yeasty trace a short tank fermentation leaves.

AlmondFine tank-method bubbles over a creamy texture, just as the Laithwaites datasheet puts it: gently fizzy rather than aggressive. Lemon and lime freshness, the second most-cited family on Vivino with 100 citrus mentions, cuts through ripe melon and a bitter-almond twist noted on the US sheet. At 10.5% ABV it is light-bodied and dry-drinking, with the soft ripe-fruit roundness of the extra-dry tier under which Vivino and Wine-Searcher catalogue the label.
Short to medium, closing on lemon zest and that faintly bitter almond note. The gentle extra-dry roundness keeps the ending soft rather than austere.
A dependable aperitivo Prosecco: 3.9 across roughly 1,700 Vivino ratings, with drinkers praising freshness and ease rather than complexity. Drink it young and well chilled; Laithwaites lists current stock to enjoy by the end of 2028.
The scores weigh the 12.99 club price against Prosecco DOC's everyday tier: an aperitivo and beginner pour, not a cellar candidate; the tank method and drink-by-2028 window set that ceiling.
Extra-dry NV Prosecco from 100% Glera is the classic entry point to Italian fizz: soft, fruity, low-tannin-free and 10.5% ABV.
Light, dry-drinking and versatile at aperitivo hour, though the 12.99 club price nudges it above a true midweek default.
Bright Glera acidity and fine bubbles cover aperitivo, shellfish and fried food, the three food families Vivino voters pick for this label; low alcohol limits it with heavier mains.
Sparkling format and a polished label story carry a casual celebration; for landmark occasions the DOC's entry tier cedes to Conegliano Valdobbiadene DOCG or metodo classico.

Prosecco DOC at this level is blended across recent harvests and re-fermented in tank for freshness. Laithwaites lists the current release to drink by 31 December 2028.
A non-vintage tank-method blend: base wines from recent harvests are re-fermented for freshness rather than built to age. Laithwaites lists the current bottling to drink by 31 December 2028; serve well chilled.

Drink-now / hold guidance reflects general style cues for this wine, not a forecast for a specific bottle. Where vintage-level editorial notes exist, they appear above.
The DOC caps Glera yields at 18 tonnes per hectare and confines fruit to nine provinces across the Veneto and Friuli Venezia Giulia, from Belluno to Trieste; this bottle declares that appellation on its label.
Italian wine law sorts bottles into a pyramid. DOCG sits at the top: tightly drawn boundaries, prescribed grapes, mandatory ageing, government tasting before release. DOC is the same idea with looser thresholds. IGT (Indicazione Geografica Tipica) is broader still, requiring only that 85% of the grapes come from the named territory.
Prosecco is in the DOC tier. That is not a quality verdict, it is a description of how much freedom the producer has at vinification and ageing.
Prosecco falls within Veneto , covering Belluno · Gorizia · Padua · Pordenone · Treviso · Trieste · Udine · Venice · Vicenza. The denomination is further divided into 2 sub-zones.
Vivino's crowd votes shellfish, appetisers and cured meat for this label; the pairings below follow that consensus, matched through acidity, bubbles and the extra-dry tier's gentle roundness.
Tank-method bubbles and lemony Glera acidity scrub fried richness from the palate between bites. At 10.5% ABV the wine stays light enough not to compound the weight of the food.
Try with: Arancini · Gnocco fritto · Prawn Tempura · More pairings →
Shellfish tops the food votes on the label's Vivino page. Lemon-lime freshness mirrors a squeeze of citrus over mussels and prawns, and the fine mousse lifts briny sweetness without smothering it.
Try with: Impepata di cozze · Oysters
Salty prosciutto and mortadella meet the wine's soft extra-dry fruit, each rinsing the other. This is the aperitivo pairing the Veneto itself defaults to with tank-method Glera.
Try with: Gnocco fritto · prosciutto · mortadella · More pairings →
The extra-dry tier's touch of residual sugar and low 10.5% alcohol sit comfortably against lightly seasoned Japanese plates, where a bone-dry or high-alcohol wine would clash.
Try with: Prawn Tempura · Nigiri Sushi · More pairings →
A featherweight fizz needs featherweight food: creamy mozzarella and ripe tomato echo the wine's soft texture and orchard fruit without outweighing its delicate frame.
Try with: Insalata Caprese · grilled summer vegetables · More pairings →
Hot chilli amplifies carbonation into prickle and strips the wine's gentle fruit, while big roasted or barbecued meats flatten a 10.5% featherweight. Keep it with lighter plates.
Skip with: vindaloo · mapo tofu · barbecue ribs · Pairing guide →
Best in the years above; holds without falling over either side.
A short splash decant softens the first-pour edge and opens the aromatics.
Tank-method NV built for freshness; the retailer lists current stock to drink by end 2028, so there is nothing to gain from keeping it.

Confidence · MediumAlessandro Gallici is an exclusive label of Direct Wines, the Laithwaites family of wine clubs, sold in the UK and US under the same product code. Laithwaites presents Gallici as a Veneto winemaker who buys Glera from growers near Venice and makes the wine by the tank method in his own cellar; the bottling estate is not disclosed on the label, so we list no producer winery for this wine.
It drinks dry. Laithwaites lists it as a dry white, while Vivino and Wine-Searcher catalogue the label in Prosecco's extra-dry tier, which carries a soft touch of ripe-fruit sweetness under a fresh finish. At 10.5% ABV it stays light on its feet.
Ripe apple, pear and lemon over a creamy, gently fizzy texture: that is the retailer's own note, and Vivino's 395 written reviews agree, with tree fruit and citrus the two most-cited flavour families. The US sheet for the same bottling adds melon, white flowers and a bitter-almond twist.
Aperitivo plates and shellfish are the crowd's picks on Vivino. Fine bubbles and lemony acidity scrub fried starters such as arancini and gnocco fritto, lift mussels and prawns, and the extra-dry roundness even sits well beside lightly seasoned Japanese dishes like prawn tempura.
No. It is a non-vintage Prosecco DOC blend, re-fermented in tank for freshness rather than built to age. Buy it young: Laithwaites lists the current bottling to drink by 31 December 2028, ideally well chilled within a year or so of purchase.
