Jaime Valdes reduced the deficit early in the second half, only for Felipe Melo to restore Juve's two-goal cushion in the 55th minute.
Atalanta battled back again courtesy of a Fabio Ceravolo effort on 70 minutes and that set up an exciting finale.
But Diego finally killed off Atalanta's hopes with a fourth Juventus goal five minutes from time and David Trezeguet inflicted further damage two minutes later.
