Named one of the top Wine Blog authors by Food and Wine Magazine
Thank you for visiting Wine Camp. I created Wine Camp to promote the discussion of terroir driven wines in a points free environment. I believe the current addiction to the 100 point scale pulls many consumers away from wines with grace, complexity and a true sense of place. Here you will find no rankings and all of the wines in my wine notes are recommended. The only exception you’ll find is if I think a particular brand is a consumer rip-off that needs exposing as in this post.
There are several featured sections of this blog, all of which you can find on the navigation bar on the left hand side of each page:
I'm also surprised it took so long. Italian wines started to go up last November, and so far we haven't seen much of a French increase (of course, I can only speak to what we order -- I'm sure there have been price increases). Well, I can't say I didn't expect it.
Carol - It has been amazing how French wine prices have held over last few years. In my opinion French wines have been the best values around (excluding top Burgundy and Bordeaux) for some time. I guess those days are coming to a close. Can't blame the producers though, they've cut their profits for years to keep prices low.
