### Diamond Harvest at Valle de Guadalupe Marks a Milestone
The current grape harvest in Baja California’s Valle de Guadalupe is celebrated in various vineyards with the Fiesta de la Vendimia. This year marks a significant milestone: the 60th harvest for the renowned winemaker Don Camillo Magoni. Invited to the region by Ángelo Cetto in the early 1960s, Don Camillo has long contributed to Baja California’s wine industry. After decades of working with L.A. Cetto, he founded his own winery, Bodegas Magoni, in the same valley. His brands—Casa Magoni, Magoni Reserva, Magoni Tradición, and Magoni Experimental—are popular, along with his olive oil and balsamic vinegar products.
Born in Morbegno, Italy, Don Camillo studied engineering at the School of Viticulture and Enology in Piemonte, Italy. Celebrating 60 years, often referred to as a diamond anniversary, this Vendimia de Diamante (Diamond Harvest) is a particularly notable event for one of Mexico’s most esteemed winemakers.
