Wine with Craig Pinhey
CCOM 2051
In this class students will learn the basics of wine tasting using an interactive approach. There is no better way to learn wine than by tasting with others who know and love wine. Craig was trained as a professional Sommelier and has been judging wine competitions and travelling the wine world for the past 12 years. His approach is more as a facilitator rather than a lecturer. You will learn by tasting a varied selection of wines together, with discussion after each wine.
