This class covers the main types of wine, the most common grape varieties, wine service, storing and serving wine, tasting technique, how to describe the smell and taste of wine, and the basics of pairing food and wine. During the class, students taste eight different wines. Three weeks after the full-day course, students will take an online, remotely invigilated 45-minute, multiple choice exam.
