     The earliest documentation concerning the cultivation of Prosecco variety in the Veneto region dates back to 1754, with Aureliano Acanti, and to 1773, with Cosimo Villafranchi, who stated that the grape came from the Carso Triestino area, where there is a small town called Prosecco and where the Prosecco cultivars are still widely grown, under the name of Glera.
