I believe the answer is:

prosecco

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'what appears to be bubbly' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'text copied to oscar' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'text' could be 'prose' (I've seen this before) and 'prose' is present in the answer.
'oscar' could be 'o' (phonetic alphabet: alpha, bravo, charlie etc.) and 'o' is found in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for prosecco that I've seen before include "Sparkling wine from Italy" , "drink" , "white wine" , "Italian bubbly" .)
