The best training in wine tourism

On the side of the universities

Several universities offer training in wine tourism. The University of Nîmes, for example, offers a Professional Degree "Oenotourism and Projects". It is possible to follow the training in alternation with an activity in a company or continuously. The major asset of this training are the numerous interventions of major players in the sector.

To continue your studies, you could opt for the Master's degree in "Wine Economics, oenotourism and interculturality" from the University Bordeaux Montaigne. Right in the heart of the city, this master's degree focuses on the international dimension of wine tourism to meet the needs of an increasingly multicultural clientele and on understanding the issues involved in the development of wine tourism.

The University Institute of Vine and Wine is aptly named. If you want to become a professional in vine growing and winemaking techniques, this is what you need! The Burgundy school, located in Dijon, also offers service-oriented training courses such as: marketing of wine products, oenology or wine tourism.

Business schools specialising in the wine-growing sector

With your baccalaureate in hand, you can start your higher education with the Bachelor's degree in "Wine Business and oenotourism" from INSEEC, located in Bordeaux. KEDGE Business School, a business school in Bordeaux, offers a Wine and Spirits Master's degree, which is very popular with students who are passionate about wine and want to become experts in wine tourism. The Bordeaux school offers its training in alternation with a professional activity or on a continuous basis.

The Burgundy School of Business group offers a Master's degree specialising in the international trade of wines and spirits. If you choose this course, you will be attached to the SWSB (School of Wine and Spirits Business) created in 2013 by the group.
