School of Port Training Classes by the Symington's

Post by Andy Velebil »

The Symington's have new training classes for those who work with Port, on/off premise, distributor, etc. This is NOT FOR THE CONSUMER, just to be clear. Since I know we have readers that work in the trade, figured I'd post this.
Our first training module (The Essentials) is a free workshop for wine trade professionals – including people working in distributors, retailers, and bars/restaurants – which can be delivered online or in-person by a professional port wine educator.

Interested? Please send us an email at schoolofport@symington.com.
The Essentials
Course contents:

1. Port in the 21st century
2. The history of port
3. The Douro Valley
4. The vintage
5. Port ageing
6. Port styles
7. How to serve (and store) port
8. Port pairings
9. How to sell port (on-trade)
10. How to sell port (off-trade)
