This core body of knowledge is important whether you sell wine\, buy wine or teach about wine.\nThe FWS program allows wine professionals to set themselves apart from their peers by specializing in the wines of France.\nIt is a great resource and supplement for students of wine moving toward advanced general wine study programs such as WSET Diploma\, Master of Wine program\, Court of Master Sommeliers’ Advanced Sommelier (and up) or Certified Wine Educator. \nWhy Study French Wine?\nAll students of wine eventually discover France. Some use it as the starting point to begin their vinous exploration while others arrive in France after having sampled the wines of other countries. There is a world within French wine and the wine styles of France have certainly impacted the entire wine world.\nMany reference France as the benchmark for wine production. But this is not just because of the quality and quantity of wines it produces. This long-standing reputation is due to the fact that internationally recognized grape varieties of high caliber such as Sauvignon Blanc\, Chardonnay\, Chenin Blanc\, Pinot Gris\, Merlot\, Malbec\, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah are all native to France!\nBy studying French wine\, the student gains a deeper appreciation for the grape and its travels and a reference point for Old World/New World comparisons. \nTerms and conditions:\nNo refunds will be issued within 10 working days prior to the start of the course. Before that period a 75% refund is allowed if a student cancels their enrolment. A 100% refund will apply if Wine House cancels. Please note there is a re-sit exam fee of $235 if a student does not attend the exam for any reason. \nEnquiries: courses@winehouse.com.au or (03) 9698 8000
