NEW YORK, Nov. 25, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Proud producer of the first Italian sparkling wine and white vermouth, Casa Gancia is celebrating its 170th anniversary by reflecting on its storied heritage and spirit of innovation.
Founded in 1850 by Carlo and Edoardo Gancia in the Piedmont region of Italy, Casa Gancia is one of the largest producers of sparkling wines, Prosecco and vermouths in the world. For 170 years, Gancia's history has become synonymous with the phrase "Made in Italy," and its wines are distributed in more than 65 countries. The label's global volume growth has increased by 30 percent to date this year.
To commemorate the anniversary, Gancia designed a 170th Anniversary edition sparkling wine bottle and box, released exclusively to partners and associates around the world.
"This milestone for Gancia is about honoring the heritage that established us as an Italian wine pioneer, while at the same time we are looking ahead to the continued expansion of our portfolio to appeal to evolving consumer tastes and preferences in North America and beyond," said Scott Oliver, CEO of Roust Americas, part of the parent company that owns Gancia.

Gancia sparkling wines originate in Langhe-Roero and Monferrato in Piedmont, Italy, known one of the most highly prized vineyard landscapes in the world. The area is also designated a UNESCO World Heritage site. Gancia's wine cellars provide natural thermal insulation with a constant temperature of 54-57° F, which is ideal for the refinement of sparkling wines.
