Mitja lives the cellar every day, with constant and impeccable attention. We are always deeply proud when his work is recognised with important awards and mentions.
In June, we had the pleasure of seeing the wine list of Ristorante Trattoria Al Cacciatore celebrated twice over. At the Star Wine List of the Year Global Final 2026 — the worldwide final bringing together over 150 sommeliers from across the globe to celebrate the finest wine lists in the world — we were awarded two Silver Stars. The first, the Best Long List, recognises breadth: wine lists capable of offering choice, depth, and personality. The second, the Special Jury Prize, comes from a different kind of gaze — that of the jury itself, awarded to those who stand out for an original vision and a truly personal way of understanding wine. Qualities that Mitja’s experience and curiosity have quietly nurtured over the years.
A further recognition came from the Fancy Award 2026, where our wine list reached the podium in the Best Wine List Client Friendly category, distinguished among those most capable of staying close to the guest.
At La Subida, everything is shaped around the guest — not simply to impress, but to build something lasting. A connection that invites you to return, to trust, to stay
These awards we gladly share — with the winemakers who find a place in our cellar every day, and with every guest who sits at our table and puts their trust in us.
To Mitja, and to everyone who works alongside him, our most sincere thanks. For having built, over the years, a wine identity always worthy of the gastronomic and hospitality soul of La Subida.
