Building on his father Giuliano's 1980s experiments with fungicide-free viticulture, Marcel Zanolari started his own small Bianzone farm in 2001.

He introduced biodynamic principles from 2010 and gained biodynamic certification in 2015, ageing wines in wood and cement amphorae.

His terraced Chiavennasca is farmed by the lunar calendar with minimal copper and sulphur.
