Liberation Mission Mission Mission Tavern Without Oste

Afternoon Easter 2009: a sunny Sunday and no traffic. The question of how to spend an afternoon in a productive way so promising. The schedule for the Spring of Prosecco informs us that St. Peter's Barbozza, a step away from Valdobbiadene, the Festival is in full swing Cartizze Doc: a forty minute drive, and there we are.

bottles Cartizze the Exhibition of San Pietro di Barbozza

To be perfectly honest, to be the most representative of the Cru Cartizze the exhibition is rather disappointing especially with regard to the organization. Little more than fifteen kids behind the counter, without the slightest idea of \u200b\u200bwhat to propose or recommend to the many patrons who, for their part, or had already tried all the (many) wines on display, and were therefore completely indifferent to what is by swallowing their glasses, or they were completely disoriented in front of the varied range of wines, Prosecco is Cartizze that stopped: the quality of the study certainly deserved a more professional.

Raise your glasses ...

We let ourselves be guided by our, albeit limited, knowledge of some labels, but gave up after a glass. Departing from Treviso, in fact, we had every intention of visiting briefly Show Cartizze of San Pietro di Barbozza then move to the nearby Santo Stefano di Valdobbiadene, where is the 'Osteria Senz'Oste , which for years was topped the list of our future missions.

Osteria Without Oste, in Santo Stefano di Valdobbiadene

is not hard to get there, asking for directions to the local people : After a couple of inversions running, and a tour of all chance in the streets of Santo Stefano, we are parked between the rows and then walking a path of stones along a secluded hillside. No details, nothing to suggest what lies at the bottom of the narrow path and apparently isolated. At the end, a delightful little house, of those once made of stone and reconstructed in a genuine way, goes over the door a wooden sign that read: "Osteria Snz'Oste" . We got it. Even without the sign, however, the voices of many people in front of the house, sitting drinking, eating and chatting cicchetti would be enough to make us understand that we arrived. Let's go: there is a small room, where time has stood still.

The basket of meats and cheeses ...

Refrigerator with Prosecco ...

... and cabinet with cold cuts of the Brothers De Stefani

No technology, a fridge that would mean 60 abbassagli the age at which Inside you can choose the different labels of sparkling, still and sparkling, in formats ranging from bottle of 0.20 cl bottles more challenging to 0.75. Above the fridge, a wicker basket containing cold cuts and cheese already portioned and placed under vacuum: the meats are produced by De Stefani family, owners of the premises, the elusive "Osti not exist."

The table "laden" Osteria

In a small cabinet on the wall, hang a dozen salamis de casada ", while on the table, in addition to boiled eggs (do not forget that Easter is ...) bread, chopping boards and knives, glasses (goblets of glass!). Each product has a label with the SRP, the host does not exist because everyone is free to pay as indicated (putting money in the box with the slit), or to pay less (or more ... but let's be realistic), or even pay at all and leave whistling.

A mini appetizer platter with the "talking"

Cheese Pepper ... goodness!

The classic cocktail Easter ...

Needless to say, given the trust, the quality of the products, and the atmosphere of other times that the inn offers, all (or nearly so, at least the impression is that) pay what they owe. music across the hill, the speakers disguised inside of the fake plastic rocks, practically invisible, not to pollute the landscape. A breathtaking view over the hills of Prosecco, with the villages all around, vineyards, and woods.

The front of the tavern patrons

A landscape that you can enjoy even better from the terrace Osteria, at the end of another narrow path that skirts the hill. A wooden terrace, hanging in the vineyards, with benches and planks of wood, vine leaves as roof and an incomparable peace. If by chance, when seated on the terrace, you had no desire to return to Osteria get another bottle of wine and a shot, do not worry, hidden under the roots of the vines, behind a wooden door, a small refrigerator is ready to satisfy your every desire.

The terrace and tables, with breathtaking views

What say we go away reluctantly from a place like this.
L ' Senz'Oste Osteria is open for years: the proof that a quality offer, combined with informality of the place, the wonderful scenery and the confidence in the customer can be a good investment. Bravi. We will come back and continue to speak well of you and this wonderful refuge among your hills.
