Robert Camuto (born February 4, 1958) is an American journalist and author specializing in wine culture and epicurean travel writing.
Camuto began working as a freelance writer in San Francisco in 1979, where he wrote about music and culture for newspapers and other publications including the short-lived New Wave magazine Boulevards.
The story is of a new generation of French regional winemakers striving to preserve endangered traditions, reconnect with nature, and produce quality wines on what are oftentimes little known terroirs.
[7] Camuto’s second book, Palmento: A Sicilian Wine Odyssey is an exploration of Sicily, from its cuisines to its history, mores, culture, and antimafia movement.
