Distilleria Scaramellini

The history of the Scaramellini family is hand in glove with the birth of the historic Scaramellini Distillery.
With direct descent from the legendary Gràpat di Campolcino of the past centuries, the founder of the distillery, Master Distiller Antonio Scaramellini, in the early 1900s decided to bring his art among the wonderful and uncontaminated places that still today host this extraordinary artisan company, the Lake Garda.
Fascinated by the place and the great Veronese winemaking tradition, he then began the construction of the imposing distiller in copper and refractory bricks, a true work of art, daughter of the centenary tradition of his Valle San Giacomo.
Implementing all the precautions and precious advice handed down from generation to generation, grandfather Antonio thus began to distill the first pomace of Bardolino, a typical wine of this DOC area, amid the great emotion of his wife Jole and the little children Giambattista and Gabriella, and the wonder and amazement of the locals. "The carts overflowing with pomace arrived pulled by horses" says Renato, historic worker of the Scaramellini Distillery since its foundation, and it was an immense joy every time the first customers returned to ask for our products again, telling us that everyone in the area was talking about them .
