S27: Fundamentals of Wine
About the Show
This course is suitable for students without previous knowledge of wine. This introductory course explores the world of wine through tastings, discussion, and food and wine pairings.
We will taste over 80 wines from classic and up-and-coming, lesser-known wine regions and styles. We will learn to decipher labels, understand how winemaking affects wine style, and generally build confidence and enjoyment when it comes to understanding and discussing wine. We will learn about the flavors of wine and how to pair them with food through multiple food and wine pairing sessions during the semester with foods prepared on-site by the Food & Wine Program's culinary team. This is a unique opportunity not found in other programs.
Refund Policy
A full refund is available before the second week of the course. After that, there are no refunds. However, you may transfer your enrollment to another person.
