Brief Introduction

One of the most overlooked aspects to becoming an Italian Wine Expert is learning how to read Italian wine labels.

Description

The hardest part about selecting a bottle of Italian wine is that the wine labels are written in Italian! But just because you don't speak Italian doesn't mean you should deprive yourself of the world's greatest wine producing country. 2,000 different grape varietals, hundreds of appellations, and a foreign language make Italian wines a complex subject. That is, until you take this course.

Italian Wine Importer and award-winning author of "Hidden Gems of Italy," Tony Margiotta will teach you how to read Italian wine labels. Even if you don't speak Italian. He'll go over the blueprint of both the front and back labels with you. You'll learn what key words and terms to look for that will give you clues about the wine type, class, quality, and value. He'll be showing you real-life Italian wine labels and dissect them line by line so you can begin to think like an aficionado. By the end of the class you'll be confident walking into a wine shop and selecting a bottle of Italian wine you wouldn't normally buy. And you know what will happen? You might find your next favorite wine! And when you share that wine with your friends and family, you'll win their admiration for your sophisticated taste.
