A new couple have come to Camigliano, a “frazione” just 9 km from Montalcino. The village has all of forty inhabitants so the arrival of Lara and Patrizio and their two daughters has made a big difference to a small community.

Best of all they have come to re-open the historic “Osteria del Galletto”. This little restaurant has existed under several different managements in the last five years, but now the style of the food seems to have returned to that of the original owners who for thirty years served delicious pinci and scottiglia to “intenditori” who were prepared to overlook the ferocious daily family fights that could be heard from the kitchen.

The Osteria is open for lunch and dinner. Telephone 0577 839052.

Olga and Mireno would be proud of Lara and Patrizio and their honest local fare.
