La Marca Prosecco 187ml – The Perfect Single-Serve Italian Sparkle

Updated → December 2024

La Marca Prosecco 187ml offers the perfect single-serving of Italy's beloved sparkling wine. With its pale golden straw color, lively effervescence, and fruit-forward flavors of green apple, peach, and citrus, this convenient mini bottle is ideal for personal indulgence, picnics, gifting, or celebrations where you want quality without committing to a full bottle.

What makes La Marca Prosecco 187ml stand out

In a world where sparkling wine often means committing to a full bottle, La Marca Prosecco 187ml delivers a premium Italian Prosecco experience in a perfectly portioned single-serve format. It’s ideal for solo sipping, picnics, gifting, and celebrations where you want quality without leftovers.

La Marca comes from the Prosecco DOC zone in northeast Italy and is named for La Marca Trevigiana (“The March of Treviso”). The result is fresh, fruit-forward, and reliably crowd-pleasing—now in a portable mini bottle.

Market overview

Prosecco has surged in popularity in the U.S. as drinkers look for accessible luxury—good bubbles at a friendly price. La Marca has become a major category leader, especially for those who want bright fruit and easy drinkability without Champagne-level costs.

The 187ml single-serve format has grown fast because it solves a big problem: freshness. One bottle = one serving (or two small pours), no flat leftovers. It’s also perfect for variety packs, party favors, and “bring-your-own” events.

Style & flavor profile

La Marca pours pale golden straw with lively, persistent bubbles. It’s labeled “Extra Dry,” which in sparkling-wine terms means a touch of sweetness that rounds the fruit while still finishing crisp.

Aromas lean citrusy and floral—fresh citrus, honeysuckle, and light hints of honey. On the palate, expect green apple, juicy peach, and ripe lemon, with a little grapefruit brightness and subtle minerality. The finish is clean and refreshing with a gently sweet, inviting edge.

At about 11% ABV, it’s lighter than many wines, making it easy to sip. A 187ml bottle is roughly 6.3 oz—about one generous glass or two smaller pours.

How it's made

La Marca Prosecco is made primarily from Glera, the classic Prosecco grape, grown in the Prosecco DOC region (Veneto and Friuli-Venezia Giulia). Grapes are gently pressed and fermented cool in stainless steel to preserve fresh fruit aromatics.

Prosecco is made using the Charmat (tank) method, where the secondary fermentation happens in pressurized tanks rather than in individual bottles like Champagne. This keeps the style bright, fruit-driven, and lively—one reason Prosecco is such a great everyday sparkling option.

Food pairings

  • Seafood and shellfish: oysters, crab, grilled shrimp, fish tacos—citrus notes complement brininess.
  • Brunch favorites: eggs Benedict, smoked salmon, avocado toast, waffles—bubbles cut through richness.
  • Antipasti and appetizers: bruschetta, caprese, prosciutto-wrapped melon, charcuterie boards.
  • Spicy dishes: Thai/Vietnamese/Szechuan—slight sweetness helps tame heat.
  • Fruit desserts: berries, fruit tarts, peach cobbler—stone fruit notes echo nicely.

How to serve

Serve well-chilled at 38–45°F (3–7°C). Chill in the fridge 2–3 hours or in an ice bucket (ice + water) for about 20 minutes. Don’t freeze.

Flutes show off bubbles, but a white wine glass can enhance aroma. For casual events, the mini bottle can even be enjoyed directly (yes, with a straw if you want). Open slowly at a 45-degree angle to release pressure gently.

Cocktails & mixing

Classic Prosecco Mimosa

Combine chilled Prosecco with fresh orange juice (1:1 for classic, or 2:1 for a bubblier mimosa). One 187ml bottle makes about two mimosas.

Peach Bellini

Add 1 oz white peach purée to a flute, then top gently with chilled Prosecco and stir lightly.

Aperol Spritz

In a wine glass with ice: 3 parts Prosecco, 2 parts Aperol, 1 splash soda water. Garnish with orange.

Buying guide

Look for the signature baby-blue La Marca label and “Prosecco DOC” marking for authenticity. Prosecco is typically non-vintage—buy for freshness, not year-hunting. The 187ml size is sold as singles or convenient 3-packs.

Comparisons vs. similar products

La Marca vs. Mionetto

Mionetto often leans a bit more honey/peach, while La Marca is typically brighter and more citrus-driven. Choose based on whether you want softer fruit (Mionetto) or a crisper, zippier sip (La Marca).

La Marca vs. Champagne

Champagne is bottle-fermented, toastier, more complex, and far pricier. Prosecco is tank-fermented, fruitier, lighter, and more affordable—perfect for everyday sparkling.

Collector & aging notes

Prosecco is meant to be enjoyed young and fresh. Drink within 1–2 years of purchase for best fruit and bubbles. Not a cellar wine.

Occasions & gifting

Great for solo treats, picnics, party favors, brunch bars, travel celebrations, and romantic two-person pours without waste. The mini format is especially handy when you want freshness every time.

Storage & shelf life

Store cool and dark. Mini bottles can be stored upright. After opening, drink immediately for best bubbles (and realistically, you will).
