DESCRIPTION
Wine has been a trade since Ancient Greece and continues to be an object of global commerce. Through a combination of lecture, case studies, excursions and tastings, this course provides students with an understanding of various aspects of the global trade. Through class outings we will visit different wine companies and converse with guest speakers to gain experience from genuine business examples. This course will cover B to C sales (retail, hospitality, online) and B to B sales focusing on wine export and marketing from the perspective of French wine producers in international markets. The course includes Field Studies. Additional fee required.
