Craig Camp on discovering wine, moving to Southern Oregon, and his love for risotto

from Hungry for More : an Epicurean's Dilemma · host trish glose

He has dedicated the majority of his life to wine and the wine industry. Craig Camp is currently the general manager at Troon Vineyard, but he grew up in Illinois, where wine was, as he says "unknown." It wasn't until a trip to Europe in college that everything changed for Craig, he says his "passion for food and wine overwhelmed my sense of reality." Craig worked for Direct Import Wine Company for years before it sold and then off to Italy he went to learn all about wine production. He came back to the state after 4 years, took over as president at Anne Amie Vineyards in Oregon where he revolutionized winemaking and marketing. He then worked at Cornerstone Cellars in Napa, where he did the same thing, but Oregon was calling him back, specifically, Southern Oregon. He got the job at Troon Vineyards, where they are Biodynamic and Regenerative Organic Certified - both in the vineyard and in the cellar. He talks about why these practices are not only important in making wine, but also key in changing culture. Craig and Trish cap off this interview discussing a love they both have - risotto. Although, Craig has fallen deeper. He'll explain.
