Introductory Wine Course

Have you ever wondered how wine is made? How does red wine get its colour? Why are there different shades of rose? And how sparkling wine gets its bubbles?

Our introductory wine course has been developed to teach curious consumers and wine enthusiasts the foundations of wine growing and wine making. 

Over 4 weeks you will learn about wine history, winemaking, and famous wine regions. A significant time will be spent tasting and discussing wines from around the world.
