The concept for TasteCamp is a simple one: getting enthusiastic
bloggers together in a region that is new to them to taste as much wine
as possible and speak to as many winemakers as possible over the course
of a weekend.

Most smaller, lesser-known wine regions in the world
would love to get their wines in front of bloggers, but with TasteCamp,
the bloggers will go to them.


For TasteCamp EAST 2009, 30 wine bloggers attacked Long Island wine country with great energy and interest. Below is a list of the blog posts that the event generated. As new posts are published, we’ll add them to the list:
