ospitalita — Palazzago · Lombardia
In the hills of Palazzago, in the province of Bergamo, one of the area's most deeply rooted agriturismi keeps open a rare kind of door: that of a farm that produces, cooks and welcomes guests under the same roof.
From the hamlet of Picco Alto, in Palazzago, the horizon opens onto the Bergamo hills without interruption. The agriturismo's summer terrace makes the most of this position, offering sunset aperitivi and open-air lunches where the view is as much a part of the table as the food that arrives on it.
The management is a family affair, and the cooking is home cooking: traditional, unmediated, with that personal touch you recognise from the first bite. Every dish comes from the farm's own livestock and crops — cured meats, cheeses, raw ingredients that travel no distance at all before reaching the table.
One of the oldest agriturismi in the province of Bergamo, Del Battista carries a history rooted deep in this land. Staying overnight means waking up on the same hills that fed the previous evening's table: a slow, coherent rhythm that few places can still offer.
On the page you'll find the menu, the farm shop and how to reach Picco Alto: the address is worth the drive.
