Course Syllabus

  • Course Introduction

    In the course introduction, we will provide some guidance on how the e-learning works and cover the structure of the course.


  • The History of Wine

    To kick off this course, we examine the origins of wine, stepping back into history and then fast-forwarding to the present and the wines from around the world that we know today.


  • The Production of Wine

    Now we'll get into the detail of the different styles of wine and how different types are made.


  • Styles of Wine

    To get our second module underway, we look at the 9 different styles of wine.


  • Grape Varietals

    It is time to look at viticulture - the art or business of growing grapes. You might be surprised to hear that some grape varietals are more profitable than others, and we'll examine the reasons why this is so. In addition, this unit covers the importance of grapes.


  • Place of Origin

    To round up our second module, we look into the importance of a wine's place of origin.


  • Storing and Preparing Wine

    We start our third and final module by considering how to store wine and the best methods to prepare it for drinking.


  • Tasting, Recommending & Pairing

    Now it is time to get more analytical as we turn our attention to tasting wine. Following on from this, we offer tips and guidance on how to recommend and pair certain wines with specific foods.


  • Serving and Glassware

    In the final unit of the course, we explore how to serve wine in the correct manner and the appropriate glassware to use for different types of wine. In addition, we provide you with step-by-step guides for opening and pouring wine.
