A wine journey in photos and moments

There’s a need in wine, both in Australia and elsewhere, for fresh, unique images to be taken, recorded, crafted and published. When we look back on the past 100 or so years of Australian wine, the images that we have to look on are both invaluable, and enriching. I’m not sure that enough of it’s going on right now. There is of course a great deal of social media photography going on and as a collective it’s a wonderful thing; hopefully it somehow manages to survive, and be passed on. This little photoblog here – most easily accessed from the above PHOTOGRAPHY drop down menu – is my little ongoing contribution.

This article was written by Campbell Mattinson, former chief editor of the Halliday Wine Companion book, former editor of Halliday magazine, former editor of Australian Sommelier Magazine and founder of the highly respected The Winefront site.

Mattinson has been an independent wine critic and photo-journalist since 1987. He’s the only Australian to have won the Australian Wine Communicator of the Year Award more than once. He’s a past winner of a Louis Roederer International Wine Media Award; is the author of the award-winning book The Wine Hunter; and is the author of the best-selling novel We Were Not Men. He’s also a winner of a St Kilda Film Festival Award (as writer-director) and is a former winner of the prized Best Australian Sports Writing Award.

Mattinson, who is 100% independent, puts a score out of 100 on every wine that he reviews. But what he’d rather do, is tell you the wine’s story.
