Winemaking
Winemaking is a series of processes - from growing wine grapes (viticulture) to harvesting, vineyard management and wine production. Our qualifications will set you up for taking on these roles with practical and work-ready skills.
Learn in the heart of the Central Otago wine region and gain the first-hand experience and knowledge you need to thrive in this booming industry.
Our flexible delivery options allow you to fit your study around your work or life. You can learn at our Cromwell campus and embrace the chance to use our nursery and ten-hectare crop production facility. Or develop your expertise through our online or work-based learning options if you currently work in this sector. The great thing is you can choose the options that best suit you.
Start with a horticulture certificate or jump straight into our diploma in wine grape growing – either way, we will help you develop the skills needed to build a career in the wine industry.
