Though Prosecco has always been a stalwart of affordable sparkling wine, in recent years the category has grown into an unstoppable juggernaut of Italian bubbly. In 2024, Prosecco saw a 17 percent increase in imports to the U.S. compared to the previous year, and now accounts for 31 percent of the total value of Italian wines sold stateside.
There’s no doubt this phenomenon can be partially attributed to the boom in aperitivo culture in the U.S., including a particular fascination with the vibrant orange Aperol Spritz. But Prosecco’s popularity isn’t exclusively tied to cocktails. In 2020, the consortium introduced Prosecco Rosé, made with a blend of Glera and Pinot Nero, adding an entirely new style of fun, fruity bubbles to enjoy. And Prosecco’s site-specific subcategories, including the prestigious Conegliano Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG, continue to grow in popularity.
We love Prosecco for its delicate fruit profile, lively bubbles, bright acidity, and laid-back personality — and, of course, for its reasonable price point. Here are 20 Proseccos to drink in 2025.
Why You Should Trust VinePair
Every year, VinePair conducts dozens of tastings for our “Buy This Booze” product roundups, highlighting the best bottles across the world’s most popular wine and spirits categories.
Within this scope, VinePair’s tasting and editorial staff samples thousands of bottles every year. This ensures we have a close eye on what’s new and exciting. Crucially, it also provides us with the context needed to distinguish the simply good from the truly great, whether from a quality or value-for-money perspective — or both.
Ultimately, our mission is to offer a clear, reliable source of information for drinkers, providing an overview applicable to day-to-day buying and drinking. Learn more about VinePair’s tastings and reviews department here.
How We Taste
We believe in tasting all products as our readers typically would: with full knowledge of the producer and — importantly — price. Our tastings are therefore not conducted blind.
VinePair’s tasting panel evaluates every wine on its aromas, flavors, structure, balance, and quality. We also consider whether or not the wine showed typicity for its specific grape or region.
How We Compiled This List
In order to provide our readers with the most comprehensive and thoroughly tested list of the best Proseccos to buy, VinePair invited producers, distributors, and PR firms working on their behalf to send samples for consideration. These bottles were submitted free of charge — producers didn’t pay to submit nor did VinePair pay for the products. All were requested with the clear understanding that submission does not guarantee inclusion in the final list.
For the Prosecco roundup, we assigned a score to each product on a 100-point scale based on the quality and intensity of its aromas, flavors, texture, and finish. Then we reviewed all scores and compiled an editorially driven list that meets our criteria of best Proseccos to buy right now. Each wine was assessed on quality, price, and availability to compile the final list.

FAQs
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 Charmat 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.
