BEAUTY,
PLEASURE, PASSION
Not only prestigious grape and wine firm but refined and
pleasant agritouristic structure, capable to offer to guests
and visitors a variegated interlacement of wine-gastronomic
proposals and cultural activities. Here tradition and innovation
find the ideal environment in which to cohabit. Beauty,
pleasure and passion: this is how “Il Fontanile” appears
to the eyes of whom, going down the access road, catch es
with the look the botanical little pond, the wine cellar
and the ancient suburb.
IL FONTANILE, PLACE OF CONVIVIO
It comes from Latin, the word “convivio”. From “cum vivere”.
It means a lot more than “to meet”. It means “to live together”.
To share an experience. Every moment, every day, every meeting,
at il Fontanile are not only experiences in which to appreciate
wines and precious and refined gastronomic product , but
also original occasions of meeting. Where knowing, learning,
tasting, becomes a true experience.
THE TASTING, SCHOOL OF MEETINGS
What the visitor discovers at “Il Fontanile” is something
amazing. Impalpable and mysterious.It’s the art that makes
the meeting of the wine with the food. An art that is expressed
in the tasting courses. In the laboratories of learning
and comparison, where the tastes of the great kitchen are
combined to the perfumes and the harmonies of the wine in
their more natural environment.
THE VITALITY OF A LONG TRADITION
It’s the guest, the meter on which every day is built. With
initiatives calibrated on his/her demands. With proposals
that develop, every time in a personalized way, an unrepeatable
symbiosis among wines, gastronomy and nature. This way we
organize meetings, always new and different, made possible
thanks to the passionate professionalism proposed by “Il
Fontanile”.
HOSPITALITY & GLAMOUR
The core of “Fontanile Relais-Valcalepio Lounge”is made
up by four large, bright, carefully furnished rooms named
after Tallarini’s prestigious wines. Each room has windows
overlooking the natural surroundings. The rooms were built
in a small converted building over two floors. The conversion
was carried out using locally sourced material whilst, at
the same time, preserving the building’s original features
and history. All rooms provide satellite TV, access to the
Internet, large wardrobes and luxurious en-suite bathrooms,
to enable guests to enjoy state-of-the-art technology and
services in the secluded tranquillity of the location. Guests
can also expect an impeccable breakfast service as well
as the possibility of dining in renowned restaurants and
enjoy the best flavours of the local cuisine.
NOT TOO FAR AWAY, BERGAMO
A visit at “Il Fontanile” is not an experience that finishes
only in the perimeter of a small valley. At a few kilometres,
Bergamo is granted to a sensitive visitor to the solicitations
of art and history. Its ancient medieval centre and its
museums make of Bergamo an ideal city for an intelligent,
less chaotic and fleeting tourism.
LEARNING FROM THE PAST
At “Il Fontanile”, for the younger people there is a school
that doesn’t have benches and it doesn’t have walls. Its
the teaching that comes from the agricultural world. A formative
experience, lived in the atmosphere of a didactic farm,
where to be able to find knowledge and traditions that the
modern world goes losing. It is in a school where also the
gestures of the grape harvesting become learning ,and the
teacher can only be the nature.
