This course focuses on the delight of drinking and thinking and talking about wines. Students will learn how wines are made, how to taste and analyze wines, and how to talk about wines in words we can all understand. In addition to this theoretical component, students will enjoy the opportunity to practice what they’ve learned by tasting iconic wines that can be found for reasonable prices at their local grocery and liquor stores.
