This subject contains a 4 day Compulsory Residential School.
Residential school is required for tutored tastings in order for the student to become familiar with the his/her own palate. Specifically the student practices their recognition and descriptive abilities for detecting basic tastes, smells, and textures. Wine and wine-like solutions are introduced in order for the students to increase their proficiency in describing sensory characteristics and relate these features to wine styles. The identification of wine faults is also practised.
