What sizes and formats can partners order?

The short answer

Two wines. One signature. Both come in ceramic-painted bottles with no paper label, and both are sealed with a cork under a wire cage. 750 mL is the standard US wine bottle: about 25.4 oz, or five 5 oz glasses. It's the size stores shelve, venues pour by the glass and bottle, and hosts buy by the case.

The full answer

Two wines. One signature.

The wines

  • Bella Principessa Prosecco DOC (gold). 100% Glera from the Prosecco DOC area. Crisp and bright: green apple, pear, white peach, a little citrus. Brut, 11% ABV. (What does Prosecco taste like?)
  • Bella Principessa Prosecco DOC Rosé (pink). Glera with Pinot Noir, which gives the color and a touch of red berries: wild strawberry and raspberry. Brut, 11% ABV. (What does Pinot Noir have to do with Prosecco?)

Both come in ceramic-painted bottles with no paper label, and both are sealed with a cork under a wire cage.

The 750 mL bottle

750 mL is the standard US wine bottle: about 25.4 oz, or five 5 oz glasses. It’s the size stores shelve, venues pour by the glass and bottle, and hosts buy by the case. (How much is in a standard bottle of Prosecco?)

The 200 mL mini Prosecco bottle

People look for mini Prosecco bottles: for a minibar, a gift basket, a welcome glass, a picnic, or a night when a whole bottle is too much. Bella Principessa makes one: 200 mL, a little over a quarter of a standard bottle, enough for one generous glass or two small ones.

The mini is made to order. Place an order and it goes into production, so tell us the quantity early and allow extra time before you need it.

Where minis work best: hotel minibars and welcome amenities, events and weddings (one per guest for the toast), gift sets, and the cold case by the register.

Cases, pricing and delivery

Case sizes, pricing and delivery days come from the distributor in your state, not from us. That’s how the US system works.

Storage

Keep stock upright in a cool, dark place, around 55°F or cooler, away from heat and light. Prosecco is made to be enjoyed young and fresh, so rotate stock: first in, first out.

For stores, bars and partners

How can my store stock Bella Principessa?

Most Prosecco is chosen because it's there. Bella Principessa is chosen because it's remembered. On a shelf of look-alike labels, a ceramic-painted bottle doesn't need a shelf-talker. People pick it up because it's beautiful. They come back because the wine lives up to the bottle.

How stores order, where it sells, and chains
Can my bar, restaurant or hotel pour Bella Principessa?

On the floor, the bottle is the pitch. No paper label. Ceramic-painted glass, butterflies and flowers. It turns heads when it leaves the bar, and the next table orders one too.

How venues buy it, and where it fits on a menu
Why add Bella Principessa if we already carry a Prosecco?

Prosecco became famous before any Prosecco brand did. Ask a guest what they're drinking and you'll hear "Prosecco." Ask which one, and you'll usually get a shrug. Cold, available, good enough. The category did the selling. No brand had to.

The gap in most Prosecco sets, and what we fill
How do I become a Bella Principessa distributor?

In the US, every bottle reaches a shelf or a bar through a distributor. We know that, and we build for it. Since the end of Prohibition, most states have used a three-tier system. The importer brings the wine into the country. A licensed distributor (wholesaler) buys it and sells it to stores, restaurants, bars and hotels. Those retailers sell it to you. Each state writes its own rules, so a distributor is appointed state by state, and a wine that's sold in Florida isn't automatically sold in Georgia.

How US distribution works, and what to send us
How do I become an agent or importer in another country?

Bella Principessa started small, sold bottle by bottle by our founder and his sister. Then we took what we learned to the US, one of the biggest export markets for Prosecco, and earned it again.

Importer or agent, what we look for, what to send
I’m hosting an event. How can we collaborate with Bella Principessa?

Partnerships, not handouts. Prosecco brings people together. Bella Principessa gives them something to remember. We love events where friendship is the point, and we're proud to be part of the ones that give something back: a real place in the moment, guests who meet the brand, and a reason to look for it again.

What makes a good fit, and what to send us
What happens after I submit interest?

No black hole. A person reads it. Tell us more than you think you need to. The best submissions say: Specific beats polite. "Two wine bars in Miami pouring 30 bottles of Prosecco a week" tells us far more than "interested in your brand."
