Wine education programs focus on investment and sensory tasting

Various wine education programs are being offered to enthusiasts, focusing on both technical knowledge and sensory experience.

In Prague, the Wine Institute is hosting a course led by sommelier Michal Karlík. The program covers wine archiving, investment strategies, label reading, and storage conditions. Participants learn about prestigious appellations and risks associated with investment wines, supplemented by tastings using the Le Nez du Vin sensory kit.

In Ljubuški, Vinarija Majić has launched a mini wine school led by enologist and scientist Marina Vranješ. This six-evening project emphasizes practical learning through tasting and discussion rather than heavy theory. The curriculum covers the basics of tasting—including appearance, aroma, acidity, and tannins—and explores specific varieties such as Žilavka, Blatina, and Trnjak.
