What does Glera taste like?

Green apple, pear, lemon, lime, white peach and floral notes shape the aroma, accompanied by a fine, occasionally slightly almond-like spice.The acidity feels lively but rarely aggressive. As Prosecco, Glera often shows a gentle mousse, a light to medium body and an animating drinking flow. Depending on the style, the wine can be very dry, fruit-driven or slightly rounder.
