Tallarini: A Gem in Bergamo's Green Hills

Nestled in the picturesque Valcalepio region of Bergamo, Tallarini Winery is a testament to the beauty of Lombardy, Italy. With 20 hectares of vineyards, the winery thrives on a strong partnership with local landowners, ensuring the cultivation of high-quality grapes.

A Legacy of Winemaking and Beekeeping

The story of Tallarini began in 1983 when Vincenzo acquired Il Fontanile, a historic village rich in charm. By 1985, he had launched his winemaking venture, combining grape cultivation with beekeeping. His dedication paid off, earning several awards for his wines, which led to the expansion of the winery and the construction of a modern cellar in Bergamo.

Quality Wines and Artisan Honey

Vincenzo focuses on two grape varieties: premium Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, both cultivated under the Lombardy DOC and DOCG regulations. Using a blend of traditional and contemporary techniques, he produces a range of wines, including red, white, sparkling, dessert, and rosé, all under the Valcalepio DOC designation. In addition to winemaking, the winery is home to over 600 beehives, producing rich, flavorful honey. The well-equipped cellar features three distinct areas for processing, aging, and tasting wines. Red wines mature in wooden barrels, while white wines are stored in large steel tanks. Each year, Tallarini Winery produces approximately 240,000 bottles, elegantly displayed throughout the cellar.

A unique experience to keep in your heart. My boyfriend and I first spent a night in this wonderful fountain and then the next day we tasted 4 wines. The sommelier Massimiliano is a great professional, he was able to tell us the story of his cellar and make us enjoy each and every wine with taste and passion. A big compliment to all the staff at the fountain who were able to welcome us impeccably! Super recommended

The Easter Monday picnic at Fontanile was a wonderful experience. Beautiful surroundings and plenty of peace and quiet to enjoy the view and savor the many tasty offers. In addition to the basket full of cold cuts, cheeses, bread and various desserts... everything is accompanied by an excellent wine served in glass glasses (a luxury picnic I would say...) and a comfortable blanket to lie down on the grass! You have the choice between the pond or the terrace above the pool...it really seems like a dream! Compliments!

Top tasting! We tried the star tasting, a real treat, the price included the tour of the wine cellar, the tasting of 4 glasses and the whole lunch. The staff was very helpful and answered all questions and fulfilled all requests (in my case vegetarian lunch). Tastings can only be booked on site. Very beautiful and evocative location, in addition to the cellar there is also a restaurant and a farmhouse.

Fantastic wine tasting experience purchased through Groupon. We were really happy with the experience that was proposed to us, lasting approximately two hours. After a small initial tour of the cellar we tasted four different wines from the cellar, what is a small tasting of cured meats and cheeses! Really really happy, it's an experience worth having! Then a personalized bottle arrives in the card. The view and the location are beautiful! Thanks so much!
