A great conversation on Troon Vineyard and regenerative agriculture on the ReGen Brands podcast! I had a great talking about biodynamics and Regenerative Organic Gold Certified® farming! https://regen-brands.com/episode/38-craig-camp-troon-vineyard #biodynamicwine #biodynamic #biodynamicfarming #regenerativeagriculture

There are good reasons biodynamics is called a practice. It is as much a way of thinking as a farming strategy. https://craigcamp.com/journal/2023/6/5/preparation-is-the-key #biodynamicwine #biodynamic #biodynamicfarming #regenerativeagriculture

Sometimes you wonder if it’s the process or preparation that is making such a difference on your farm. I believe it is the combination of both that enlivens biodynamics. https://craigcamp.com/journal/2023/6/5/preparation-is-the-key #biodynamicwine #biodynamic #biodynamicfarming #regenerativeagriculture

We always discuss farming and winemaking, but little is said about sales. Sales should not be ignored because to be green, you have to make a profit. With no margin, there is no mission. https://craigcamp.com/journal/2023/5/28/holistic-wine-sales #biodynamicwine #biodynamic #biodynamicfarming #regenerativeagriculture

Each growing season has its unique characteristics, so by definition, naturally grown produce will have its distinctive traits each harvest. This is where the two concepts of winemaking diverge. One chooses an assembly line mentality, while the other chooses nature. https://craigcamp.com/journal/2023/4/26/9w7xyidwert3wzi0yqjmvd8yxltxyk #biodynamicwine #biodynamic #biodynamicfarming #podcast

"It requires the courage of your convictions to take Mother Nature’s ride. The results of these choices are predictable. One gives you solid commercial-grade beverage alcohol — the other gives you wine."

However, Troon Vineyards acknowledges that it is a small piece of the puzzle. “What we do on our 100-acre farm will not change the world unless we convince other farmers and winemakers to adopt that same mission,” says Craig Camp, General Manager at Troon Vineyards. “Also, we must convince wine consumers that wine crafted with quality, place, and planet in mind is worth the search.” https://www.thewinechef.com/blog/celebrating-earth-day-with-troon-vineyard #biodynamicwine #biodynamic #biodynamicfarming #regenerativeagriculture

Troon 2020 Estate Vineyard Syrah (Applegate Valley)

96 Points Wine Enthusiast
An aromatic combination of blackberry, violet, white pepper, chalk and a trace of earthiness. Ripe, earthy marionberry and white peach fruit flavors fill the mouth, while bits of anise and bittersweet dark chocolate float in the background. Smooth tannins and more than enough acidity to keep things lively. Editor’s Choice. —M.A.

Thanks to Trish Glose for interviewing me! I had a great time and it was fun to share a bit of my wine history. https://youtu.be/zEXzoMWpOns #biodynamicwine #biodynamic #biodynamicfarming #regenerativeagriculture

'China's New Wave of Natural Wine: Adversity has sparked diversity for China's winemakers, with niche wines emerging in what was a very traditional wine market."

My article in Wine Searcher.

In sum, Chinese wines became more diverse during the COVID era, driven by global inspiration, local ambition and economic necessity.
