Villa de Varda

The activity of the Varda family begins at the beginning of the 16th century in the locality of Mezzolombardo, in the territory of Trento, and over the years it connects with the most important events of Trentino history. In 1678 Leopold the 1st, Emperor of Austria, Bohemia and Hungary, grants the title of nobility to Giovanni Battista de Varda, grappa producer and owner of vineyards and wine cellars. Michele Dolzan began his research and training in the art of distillation in the same cellars at the beginning of the 18th century. This proud heritage is continued today by Luigi Dolzan.
