This is a new style of episode specifically designed to help out my WSET diploma friends. Several episodes ago I focused on viticulture. Part 1 is Episode 98 and Part 2 is Episode 105. My teachings in those episodes (or ramblings) are all things expected of you IF you want to pass your D1 ‘Wine production’ exams. Since then, regardless of if you are studying for your diploma, or just wanting to do some DEEP DIVES, I’ve been requested to do some more episodes focusing on the units in these highly regarded wine exams. So this episode is going to be on FORTIFIED WINES – (Unit D5 in the WSET Diploma).

I've decided to do a flashcard-style podcast, which is a useful way for those trying to memorize the information, however, for all of you who just love wine and want to know more and increase your knowledge, this will still be a really interesting episode as you can just play it all the way through like any other episode.

This is Part 1 which will cover Sherry, VNDs (Vins Doux Naturels), and Rutherglen Muscat. Part 2 will come out in the following weeks and that will cover Port and Madeira.

If you want to skip ahead:

2.32: Sherry

28.35: Vins Doux Naturels

38.21: Rutherglen Muscat

And if the podcast isn't enough....
