Last month I went to a photography festival in a wine region (the Alpine Valleys). I had my photographer’s hat on rather than my wine hat, though I did visit Mayford. While I was there though I started to wonder: is this something that should be replicated in other wine regions?
Campbell Mattinson has been an independent journalist, wine critic and photographer for forty years. He founded The Winefront, is a former chief editor of the Halliday Wine Companion (and former editor of Halliday magazine), and is the only Australian to have won the Australian Wine Communicator of the Year Award more than once. He is 100% independent, and tastes between 5,000 and 10,000 wines each year, blind and in comparative brackets as often as is practicable.
Mattinson is also the founder of the Mattinson Photography business.
