The cheese bar in the forest
Meet our new concept of “cheese bar”: a small wooden kiosk immersed in the Mercadante forest, in the heart of the Murgia Park. What awaits you is a tasting journey into our range of cheeses, from fresh to mature, as well as blue cheeses while sipping local wines and enjoying other traditional Apulian delicacies. One day, my partner and I were walking through the forest with our daughter Chiara - who was having the time of her life running barefoot and getting dirty – when we saw an abandoned wooden kiosk. We instantly fell in love with it and decided to create a place for Chiara to unwind and rediscover the authentic taste of life. Baby Dicecca is now open to all of you. Here you won’t find any menu but you will find us, Vito and
Roberta, looking forward to taking you through a tasting discovery of our range of cheeses and other local products.
As if this unique tasting experience would not be life changing, it will take place in the symphony of the Mercadante forest: 1300 hectares of wilderness where you can relax while enjoying good food and great companionship.

Many thanks to Vito for the education and tasting experience of artesanal cheese.
The tour of the beautiful city of Altamura and the tasting bar in the woods were much appreciated!
Thanks again!

Vito takes hand-made cheese to a new level with the “cheese tour” and tasting experience. I thoroughly enjoyed the overview of the cheese production process, followed by a night of cheese tasting in the woods between Altamura and Bari.
I look forward to another night of Dicecca Burrata, Caciocavallo, fresh figs, focaccia, Pugliese wine, fine olive oils, and ‘Pane di Altamura,’ and of course, live music… with a jubilant (and well-fed) international audience. Thanks again Vito!

Entrate nella foresta di Mercadante è come entrare in un luogo fantastico, lontano dalla vita frenetica. Entrare da Vito e Roberta è come entrare a casa, dove si viene accolti e si fa parte della loro speciale storia. L’esperienza è unica, che stimola i sensi e ti fa vivere una nuova dimensione dove il formaggio è il re. Grazie Vito e ai tuoi ragazzi di questo regalo esperienziale.

We loved the cheese bar in the forest and had a fantastic afternoon with so much good cheese, amazing bread and great wine. The service is excellent, Desiré our waitress was very knowledgeable and helpful but also funny with a nice sense of humor to give us a great time while enjoying all the nice food and drinks.
Vito and Roberta have created a true gem and we can only recommend everyone to go there!
Thank you Stanley Tucci for recommending this!

Who would have thought, a cheese tasting, a cheese farm in the middle of the forest.
This is not just a tasting, this is an experience like no other. Let’s just say I wish I lived there for a few days, definitely it’s all about the excitement of tasting the incredible marriage of ingredients and tasting. It’s also the location which is so unique, inspiring. Vito and his gorgeous wife Roberta was so accommodating, with there renowned hospitality. A must visit, can’t wait to be back year.
