Antico Granaio. The bakery of Matera.
Deep in the ancient Sassi of Matera, we built a bakery where wheat becomes taralli, pasta and specialities with a flavour you won't forget. Every day we work simple ingredients with artisan care, bringing fragrant, distinctive products to your table — true to our land.
In the Heart of Basilicata
We were born in Matera — a place of stone, sunlight and wheat fields. Here, cooking is elemental, honest, driven by the raw ingredient itself.
Our identity is rooted in Lucanian recipes, refined with an unwavering focus on quality and consistency. Every product tells the story of the land it comes from.
From Raw Ingredient to Finished Product
We source top-quality semolina and ingredients. We control every stage of production. We guarantee a balanced texture and a recognisable taste.
Our taralli are shaped with artisan skill. Our pasta is bronze-drawn and slowly dried to achieve the perfect porosity and cooking resilience.
The result is a simple product, built with precision.
Our Mission
To bring the true taste of Matera to your table through authentic baked goods, crafted from selected ingredients with meticulous care.
We want to make the quality of Lucanian tradition accessible every day — turning wheat into a flavour experience that is tangible and unmistakable.
Our Vision
To become a trusted name for anyone seeking authentic Basilicata products that combine regional identity with consistent quality.
We aim to be ambassadors of Matera's taste — in Italy and beyond — while keeping our roots and standards firmly in place.
