UM course teaches the art of wines

From Page 1 they learn that you can buy a very good wine for a few dollar'. Offering their $100, eight-week course for the third time through Continuing Education at the University of Miami, Drs. Hosmon and Knoblock share their knowledge, as well as about 60 different wines, with each class. Students learn the difference between California wines and French and German wines, as well as the differences between vineyards. "Some people say California doesn't make good wines, that's just not true," says Dr. Hosmon. "Some day California wines will be equal to French wines, but we're talking about many years. After all, French vineyards have been practicing for 300 years, California for about 50, minus Prohibition." In the past, California was purely imitative of France, Dr. Hosmon says, but now they aren't afraid to put an unknown, unique label on their wines. Dr. Hosmon says Americans usually prefer Bordeaux wines to Burgundy and novices overwhelmingly prefer white wine to red. With wines that sell for $10 or less, price doesn't indicate value, Dr. Hosmon says. "You can get a wine for $5 that's just as good as a $10 bottle. "In America, some wines are so popular they are way overpriced, like Pommard or Chateauneuf du-Pape. People can pronounce them, so they order them. Eschezeaux is a better wine and is priced very low, because no one ever orders it." Each week, the students taste six or seven different wines. Since one bottle is split fourteen ways, no one drinks more than two or three glasses of wine a night, Dr. Hosmon says. He and Dr. Knoblock find the wines through their sources in the South Florida area. "Wine dealers know we have this class, and if they get something special, they let us know," Hosmon says.
