One of the cool, and most interesting places in the world to take a course on wine is in Italy, and it is San Gimignano, home of Vernaccia, the most famous Tuscan white wine. The American magazine, Wine Enthusiast, selected the medieval village w and other destinations around the world as the best travel destinations to enrich one’s knowledge of wine. Destinations in Portugal, Provence, Scotland, Spain, Baune, New Zealand, and the United States, offer many types of learning opportunities, such as the Wine & Spirit Education Trust (Wset) diploma and tasting courses.

Wine Enthusiast had a myriad of reasons to select San Gimignano. It is one of the most beloved and visited villages in the Italian wine world, and it is where Vernaccia, the “White Queen” in a notoriously “red” region, was created. In San Gimignano, among medieval towers and spectacular views, you can follow “The Wine Experience”, a two-hour Masterclass (available in Italian, English and French), which explores the white grape variety of the area, organized by the Consorzio della Vernaccia.
