The wine education course in Philadelphia. In a month, we transform our students into superior wine tasters, usually scoring higher than top sommeliers. It is due to The Wine School of Philadelphia that I am attending graduate school for Oenology and Viticulture at the University of California at Davis. -Jenny Schultz, Philadelphia This popular wine course was developed by Keith Wallace for the Wine School of Philadelphia and the American Wine Foundation. The emphasis on sensory evaluation and plain talk is invaluable to anyone with a passion for wine.  The Foundation program is truly a unique and enjoyable learning experience. -Bob Pigeon, Executive Editor of De Capo Press. This unique and intensive wine course is based on cutting-edge research undertaken at the Monell Institute in Philadelphia and at the University of California, Davis. "The only chemistry class you will leave laughing" is how our students describe our smart-but-fun approach to wine education. The Wine School is a great place to build knowledge and pursue your passion. -Jonathan Newman, Former Chairman of the PLCB For an intensive wine experience, you can attend the Intermediate Certificate Wine Course in tandem with the Foundation Certificate. After the successful completion of this certification course, graduates will be given full membership into the Wine School. Subjects included in this class include the following: The Pleasure of Wine, the Science of Wine Understanding White Wines. Understanding Red Wines The Wine Components Understanding Winemaking Learning to Blind Taste Food and Wine Pairing The course offers eight individual classes, and one online class. Questions?
