Michela Bigio

A professional sommelier certified by the Italian Sommelier Association, with credentials as maître, food and wine guide and bartender.

Michela Bigio is the soul of the dining room. Her guidance through the wine selection and the considered pairings are an integral part of what makes dinner here different from dinner anywhere else.

A partnership built on passion

The story of La Sosta del Cavaliere cannot be separated from the story of Leonardo and Michela together. They met at the end of 2013, and what began as a professional collaboration became a shared life project.

At the end of 2013 I met my partner Michela Bigio. Together we began to build not just a restaurant, but a complete experience that honours our land.

The decision of 2020

When the restaurant closed during Covid, many would have seen an ending.

We decided to pursue our dream.

Michela Bigio

From there began the complete renovation that turned the original osteria into the fine dining restaurant that exists today. It was not only a physical transformation.
