SOFI and the caminade
Sofi's paintings, illustrations chosen for all our labels, resonate as a link between our past and our present. Our identity.
Sophie Dumortier, a New Caledonian painter, captures nature, human and plant, associated in a magnificent intimacy. This intimacy is found in our wines. Art and wine, an ode to life that we celebrate.
The world of Caminade resembles Sofi's world, real, vibrant and free.
The illustrations in the "Oléti" collection are inspired by a work in sixteen paintings entitled "Seize réveils". "Oléti" is a word from the "Drehu" language of Lifou, one of the three Loyalty Islands of New Caledonia; it means thank you.
The label of the "Haute Voltige" vintage is taken from the diptych "La forêt", a dreamlike work in which the woman is the forest or the forest is the woman, between fusion and sensuality.
The sketches of the "Commandery CY" vintage and the "Château La Caminade" vintage are fragments, a call to reverie
