The story of the Bolla winery is the story of a family that revolutionised the wine market in the last century to become today one of the most internationally important Italian wine companies.
The winery was founded in Soave in 1883 by Alberto Bolla who, when still a child, developed a passion for wine, spending much of his time in the cellar of his parents Abele’s and Giulia’s tavern “Al Gambero” until he decided to start selling the local white wine to other taverns in Soave. The idea paid off and soon he had business as far away as Verona and even Venice where he opened a restaurant in 1902 with his brothers near the church of San Salvatore.
