The article captured my journey, from Army service to winemaking, and the philosophy behind Camino: precision, dedication and a deep respect for both vineyard and craft. It also explored how my experiences across Australia, Europe, and North America have shaped the debut range of wines and celebrate South Australian fruit.

At Camino, the goal has always been to create wines that tell a story and I’m grateful that Christine’s thoughtful writing recognised this and what makes Camino special.

Here are the full reviews of two Camino wines featured in her article:

Camino 2023 Grenache Rosé ($30)

"Light salmon in colour with a tinge of copper and gold, this dry Rosé is deliciously fresh and vibrant. Very easy to quaff, either while kicking back on the deck or enjoying a casual meal, it has delicate strawberry aromas, notes of rhubarb, raspberry and red apple, and a hint of spice. A very food-friendly wine, it would be a great accompaniment to a lovely salmon dish or a seafood feast."

Camino 2023 Centenary Vines Barossa Valley Grenache ($60)

"Old-vine grenache is one of life’s greatest pleasures so learning that the grapes for this wine come from a Barossa vineyard planted in 1912 makes my heart sing. And what a joy it is. Fermented in seasoned French oak for nine months, it has velvety tannins, a gorgeous crimson colour, raspberry and cherry notes with underlying Christmas cake spice. We enjoyed it with rare steak and a truffle and black garlic sauce, but it would pair with a wide variety of food, especially Asian dishes."

We encourage you to check out Christine’s website and read her full articlehere — it’s a fantastic resource for wine, food, and travel lovers alike.

A huge thank you to Food Wine Travel for your support and for sharing the Camino story.
