Chardonnay, cabernet sauvignon, rosé, pinot noir, Port, Sherry, and Champagne: Each of these is a different type of wine with its own distinct sensorial characteristics. In this course, you will continue on your winemaking journey by determining the workflow and steps needed to produce these wine types. Although not an exhaustive dive into winemaking, you will be introduced to a foundation from which to start.

You will then design basic wine production plans for table, fortified, and sparkling wines as you consider what it means to be a wine professional. With this newfound knowledge, you will be set up for a more nuanced and clear path ahead in the wine industry and beyond.
