This subject contains a 1 days Compulsory Workplace Learning component.
Students will gather knowledge about soil, cultivar, climate, management etc of a chosen vineyard to be able to critically assess and evaluate the cultivar growing in the vineyard in terms of soil and climate, canopy management and the wider business perspective, and to be able to determine and justify if the cultivar, site, and climate are well matched and management practises are sustainable. Several short visits to the vineyeard, rather than a single one, may be required.
