The white grape variety originates either from Istria-Croatia or from Veneto-Italy. Synonyms are Gargana, Ghera, Glere, Grappolo Spargolo, Prosecco, Prosecco Balbi, Prosecco Bianco, Prosecco Nostrano, Prosecco Tondo, Sciprina, Serpina, Serprina, Serprino, Uva Pissona (Italy); Briska Glera, Gljera, Steverjana (Slovenia); Beli Teran, Bresanka, Prosekar, Proseko, Teran Bijeli (Croatia).

Since then, Prosecco has been a protected designation of origin.
