Description

Learn how to taste wine knowledgeably and describe what you are tasting. In this 4-meeting course, a certified Sommelier will guide you through wine types, grapes, varietals, and the wine regions of Argentina as well as the basics of reading a wine label, and hints for smart buying. Also included are the basics of wine-and-food pairing, what matches well, what doesn't and why.

This wine tasting course is a great add-on to our Spanish program. Our Intensive Spanish in Buenos Aires program is designed for both university students and travelers looking to learn Spanish rapidly, well, and in an immersion environment.

University of Buenos Aires Spanish courses have an average of 5-12 students, so you will receive personalized attention from professors and ample opportunity to participate. Daily Spanish lessons emphasize a range of skills including: listening, reading, writing, oral comprehension, culture, current events and history.

Spanish in Buenos Aires classes take place at the Language Center of the University of Buenos Aires, a few blocks from the Congress building and downtown Buenos Aires. Spanish course materials (textbook and workbook) and group activities are included.

University credit for the Spanish in Buenos Aires courses are available for all levels and courses. Students receive a certificate at the end of their course that can be mailed directly to their home university. This certificate states the number of hours and Spanish course levels completed, final percentage grade and is complete with the logo of the university.
