Folgaria

Folgaria, an alpine community of 3,174 residents in the autonomous province of Trento, has forged historical sisterhoods reaching from the Baltic coast to Sardinia. In this elevated mountain landscape, agriculture is safeguarded by 19 protected denominations, with 1 verified producer keeping these local crafts active. The terroir yields celebrated specialties like Mele del Trentino IGP, which benefit from dramatic alpine day-and-night temperature swings. This rugged environment also defines the strict 166-municipality zone allowed to produce the intense Carne Salada del Trentino IGP and the aromatic Grappa trentina IG.
