Why the wine class?

Two major motivations behind my decision to take this class despite that I turn red after one simple sip of wine:


1. Wine is an indispensable element of life. I lived and worked in Asia where wine culture is virtually everywhere - in fact many big business decisions, difficult managerial conversations,  important strategic cooperation are done on dinner tables with a good glass of wine on the side. Therefore I've always been amazed by the human connections wine is able to build among different people.

2. I like that this class is specifically about an industry. Learning about sectors that I am not familiar with is one of my top learning goals in life. The wine industry is one that has intrigued me yet I am unfamiliar with. Therefore I'd like to take this chance to read, learn and think about the industry and players long the wine value chain in a systematic way.
