Course overview
We are all familiar with Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and perhaps Meunier, but how much do you know about Bacchus, Ortega or even Piwi varieties?
This one-day course will give you the knowledge to make informed decisions about which grape varieties to choose for your vineyard. Packed with useful information and hands-on training in the vineyard at Forty Hall Vineyard, the day finishes off with a varietal wine tasting.
You will learn
- Pros and cons of different grape varieties
- Hands-on practice in the vineyard
- Wine tasting skills
Although there is no formal qualification associated with this course, all participants will receive a Capel Manor College Certificate of Attendance upon completion of the course.
No entry requirements but an interest in the subject area is key.
Upon completion of this course, you can progress to one of our other courses in viticulture and oenology.
