The New World covers all of those countries “discovered” after 1492. This is because wine is a Eurocentric invention and was not consumed in any New World country until the Europeans arrived. There is one exception: the “Nuevo-New World.” An in-depth knowledge of New World wine is critical to the wine professional and serious wine student.
This is a required course for the Level III Certification. If you would like to take a detailed, technical course on New World wine you can take this course without being a Level III student. However, we strongly recommend that you first take the Guild Certification Seminar before attempting a Level III regional course.
This course covers the following New World Countries:
United States Canada Mexico Australia New Zealand Chile Argentina Uruguay and the rest of South America China and the far east (the “Neuvo-New World”} South Africa You will also learn about:
Geography and climate Wine production techniques How to use vintage data, by region or country Wine character data, by appellation You will receive more than 600 pages of material, specifically designed for this course and taste about 100 wines
The 11-week course meets every Wednesday beginning July 15th through September 16th, 2009, for a total of 44 contact hours. Cost of the course includes registration fees, handouts, wine, and instruction. We taste older vintage wines in this course. |
