La Biancara

Angiolino Maule did not grow up in wine. He and his wife Rosamaria spent more than a decade running a pizzeria in the Veneto, saving enough to buy a hillside property near Sorio di Gambellara in the early 1980s. He made his first wine in 1988, using conventional methods, and spent the years that followed undoing everything he had been taught until he arrived at a way of farming and making wine that has influenced an entire generation of Italian producers.

The land at La Biancara came with old Garganega vines and volcanic soils that Maule quickly realised were extraordinary. Through the late 1980s and 1990s he moved away from chemical viticulture and toward biodynamic certification, which he holds to this day. In 2006 he founded VinNatur, an association now grouping more than 130 small producers across Europe that funds research into soil health, natural viticulture, and the science behind low-sulfur winemaking. He remains the association's president and its most prominent voice.
