Print PDF

This is an intermediate English course for wine experts. The knowledge about how the wine is created that such experts have is used as a starting point for the course design. Working on this knowledge the course focuses on exploring and expanding both oral( listening and speaking) and written (reading and writing) skills, depending on the student’s level of English. Specific vocabulary referring to the description of the vine plant, the process of wine making and the description of wine tasting is first revised and then developed with new terms. Those aspects of grammar that are needed in relation with such lexical areas of knowledge are particularly explained and emphasized.
