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:

“The Wine Camp Blog” my ongoing commentary on the world of wine and food

My Wine and Food Writing Library” features longer, more in-depth articles covering the world of wine and food and the archives from VinoCibo.com.

Worth Reading: Jeremy Parzen Learns How to Love Barrique

Slovenia Day 1: Movia (my barrique epiphany) « Do Bianchi

The ever eloquent Jeremy Parzen at Do Bianchi discovers that barrique are not evil just because the people that use them can be.

Reader Comments (3)

barrique are not evil? Who say? For me in Barolo wines are really Evil. No barrique, evviva il Barolo vero!

Franco, I used to think that too and still think 90% of the time nebbiolo in barrique is evil. However, there are exceptions and those with lighter hands. Andrea Sottimano convinced me it could be done with his lovely barrique aged Barbaresci. I admit they are the exception to the rule.

Franco, don't worry, I haven't gone to the "dark side," as our friend Charles Scicolone likes to say.

I'm looking forward to trying Andrea's wines.
