A featherweight pour at 10% ABV with a creamy mousse and full Spumante bubble, the house choosing Spumante over the gentler Frizzante. Ripe peach, apple and pear sit on a dry, fruit-rounded core lifted by a citrusy zip.
Short and clean, the lemony freshness doing the lifting. Across 115 Vivino ratings it averages 4.1 and lands in the top 3% for value fizz.
An honest, under-10-pound Veneto Prosecco DOC: 100% Glera by the tank method, made for the aperitivo hour and light seafood rather than the cellar.
Under 10 pounds, and best drunk before the end of 2027
Lustrato is a Laithwaites own-label, sold at 8.99 pounds a bottle or 7.99 in a mixed dozen. It carries a 31 December 2027 best-before, the honest signal here: this is non-vintage, tank-method Glera to buy for the next drink, not to lay down. Chill it hard and open it young.
A value aperitivo fizz, not a cellar wine
The scores below place Lustrato where it belongs: high on value and everyday drinking, low on cellaring. At 8.99 pounds with a 4.1 Vivino average it over-delivers as a midweek and aperitivo fizz, while its non-vintage, drink-young build means there is no case for the cellar.
Light, dry and fruit-forward at just 10% ABV with a soft creamy mousse: an easy, low-risk introduction to Italian sparkling.
Under 10 pounds, low in alcohol and endlessly useful for the aperitivo hour, an easy midweek fizz.
At 8.99 pounds, or 7.99 in a mixed dozen, with a 4.1 Vivino average across 115 ratings, it is strong value for a genuine Prosecco DOC.
Versatile with aperitivo bites, fried snacks, light shellfish and cured meats, the pairings Vivino tasters log most, though not a match for rich meat or bold sauces.

Non-vintage: a fizz built for freshness, not the cellar
There is no vintage year on Lustrato. Like most Prosecco DOC it is blended for a consistent house style and released to drink young, and the datasheet's 31 December 2027 best-before backs that up. The freshness you want is here now, in the citrus and orchard fruit, so there is nothing to gain by waiting.

Non-vintage: Prosecco DOC is blended for a consistent house style and released to drink young. The Laithwaites datasheet gives a 31 December 2027 best-before, so enjoy this tank-method Glera fresh and 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.
Aperitivo, fried snacks and light shellfish
Lustrato earns its keep at the aperitivo hour. The creamy bubbles and lemony acidity cut fried and salt-cured bites, while the light 10% body sits under shellfish without swamping it, the pairings Vivino tasters log most. Expect fat-cutting fizz for arancini and gnocco fritto, and citrus freshness for peppered mussels and Venetian baccala.
Bubbles and acidity scrub fried richness
A creamy mousse and Glera's lemony acidity lift and cut the oil in fried aperitivo bites, resetting the palate between mouthfuls.

Citrus freshness meets light shellfish
The light 10% body keeps things delicate while the lemony zip mirrors a squeeze of citrus over peppered mussels, matching the dish without swamping the broth.
Try with: Impepata di cozze · More pairings →
Ripe orchard fruit softens salted cod
Ripe peach and pear fruit rounds off the salt in Venetian whipped baccala, the classic cicchetti-and-fizz pairing from Prosecco's home region.

A featherweight fizz for the aperitivo hour
At a light 10% ABV with delicate creamy bubbles it sits under antipasti and fried snacks as an aperitif rather than overpowering them, exactly where Vivino tasters place it.

Avoid fiery chilli heat
The low 10% alcohol and brisk bubbles amplify capsaicin, so fiery chilli dishes such as a heavy nduja or arrabbiata leave this delicate fizz tasting thin and sharp.
Peak around 2026. Best in the years above; holds without falling over either side.
A short splash decant softens the first-pour edge and opens the aromatics.
A non-vintage tank-method Prosecco with a 31 December 2027 best-before, built for freshness with no upside from ageing.
£8.99 is the lowest tracked offer for the current vintage and we have no signal of further discounting.

Common Questions
It is dry. Laithwaites lists Lustrato as a dry white, and 100% Glera gives ripe peach, apple and pear fruit that reads as rounded rather than sweet, closed by a citrusy, lemony freshness.
One hundred percent Glera, the signature grape of Prosecco DOC. It is grown across the Veneto and Friuli Venezia Giulia plain and vinified by the Martinotti tank method that keeps Prosecco fresh and fruity.
Spumante. Laithwaites describes a creamy mousse with full Spumante bubbles rather than the gentler Frizzante style, so you get the full sparkling experience.
Creamy mousse, ripe peach, apple and pear, with a citrusy zip and lemony freshness. It is light gold and light bodied at 10% ABV, and 115 Vivino ratings average 4.1 out of 5.
Serve it as an aperitivo or with fried and salt-cured bites: arancini, gnocco fritto, impepata di cozze and Venetian baccala mantecato. Its acidity and bubbles cut fried richness and salt.
Yes, Laithwaites lists it as both vegan and vegetarian. Like most tank-method Prosecco it is built to drink young: chill it and enjoy before the 31 December 2027 best-before date.
