Course Introduction


The Bordeaux Wine School was founded by the Bordeaux Wine Trade Council (CIVB). The aim of the specialised training courses provided by the Wine School is to enable people to familiarise themselves with Bordeaux wines, and learn the art of choosing and tasting them.

The goals of the L'Ecole du Vin de Bordeaux Courses include three main directions, to provide basic, interesting and pratical knowledge for wine consumers and enthusiasts.

We hope that through international-standard certification courses, we can help wine lovers and wine practitioners increase their understanding of Bordeaux's regions and wines.
