what does the e-learning course cost? Must say I have not done online courses, but could be interesting to look at

I was pleased to read your comment about wine tasting notes, something I absolutely agree with- I don't even give my students my atsting notes ,simply because, ultimately, it is all so subjective. By the way, we have a nice e-learning course for anyone wanting to learn to taste a bit analytically.

I raise my glass to the fact that blogging makes it easier to find people willing to answer questions! Good health!

Thanks for your blog! I enjoy reading it. I was going to answer your question here, then it was getting long, so I decided to make a blog post on my blog.

Great. Jeff seems to have similar ideas about wine to me so I hope you like it.

I will post a few more links and reviews of blogs on my blog in the near future.

Good luck with your exploration.

Your qualified advice was very helpful - WineMinistry seems to be right up my street.

One thing I have been doing a lot this year is learning how to critique photos for myself and others. For that, I have a starting point that consists of a set of questions (eg. what is the subject? how is it framed?) and a vocabulary (eg. depth of field, sharpness, bokeh).

I am seeking the same for wine so that, as I enjoy drinking it, I can understand and appreciate it more deeply and, over time, improve my ability to pick the ideal bottle for a given situation.

Anyway, thanks for your input.
