Did you know that you should be drinking Prosecco from a wine glass, not from a flute? Champagne flutes are designed for champagne and Prosecco is designed to be drunk out of a wine glass. This is so that you can get all of the beautiful aromas and understand what's happening in your glass. And when you cheers in Italy, you go down to the table and then you cheers back to everyone's good health. Brilliant.
