Viticulture & Enology Intensive
FROM GRAPE TO BOTTLE: Trace the origin of quality and style from vineyard to cellar with a guided style-based tasting.
Description
Do you know the difference between viticulture and enology? Learn the species and varieties of grapes used in winemaking and the difference between clones, crosses, hybrids and grafting. Study the physical structure of the vine, the annual lifecycle and the metabolic processes. Learn about terroir and sustainable farming. Next our studies take us inside the winery to learn wine production techniques for all styles of wines and the myriad of options for the winemaker. We tie it all together to understand how the decisions in the vineyard and in the cellar impact the style and quality of the final product.
This class is the part of our Certified Specialist of Wine certification program, but can be taken à la carte. Your class fees can be applied to the cost of the full series if you would like to continue on. Those who would like to attend online and forgo the wine tastings can apply SKIPTHEWINE at checkout to many online classes for 40% off. SEE ALL WEBONLY CLASSES
