A master of the technical aspects of wine tasting, James Suckling has tasted more than 200,000 wines so far in his 40-year career. He also helped to standardize the 100-point scale in wine reviews, and Forbes has called him "one of the world's most powerful wine critics."

James and his team of tasting editors now rate about 10,000 wines every year, posting comprehensive tasting notes, reviews, reports, and videos from their travels around the globe to JamesSuckling.com.

Though he's built an encyclopedic knowledge of wines, histories, and ratings, James is most passionate about teaching students to trust their instincts, to learn to distinguish what they enjoy, and, most of all, to savor the moments wine can create. In his MasterClass, the former Wine Spectator senior editor starts in the cellars at Il Borro and tours legendary Tuscan vineyards, talking with winemakers and teaching his approach to the emotional aspects of appreciating wines from around the world. Cultivate your passion, learn James's philosophy on enjoying wines, and choose, order, and pair wines with a deeper understanding of the distinct properties in every bottle.

Through 11 online video lessons and a comprehensive wine guide with printable tasting sheets, James teaches you:

* What he looks for in a great glass of wine
* How he conducts a blind tasting
* His approach to barrel tasting
* Why good wine doesn't have to be pricey
* Tips for demystifying wine menus
* His approach to choosing and buying wines
* His wine and food strategy
* Creative ideas for pairing wine with food
* How to look for the stories, history, and people in every bottle
* Ideas for curating a home wine collection

In order to appreciate wine, you must first be able to truly taste it. Understand the common characteristics of different varietals by discussing flavor, aroma, acidity, structure, texture, and balance.

Soil and climate play an essential role in the winemaking process. James teaches you how to look for subtleties between vintages with a vertical tasting of Tignanello.
