A one-page summary flow chart of the key stages in Red Wine making.

I have reworked these from notes that I made during my Diploma and am sharing them on these pages for anyone studying a formal WSET course or just interested in learning. 

These notes are absolutely not a substitute for the course books provided by WSET or indeed any other reference books. However I have found it helpful to condense information and present it visually in a way that tries to draw out the what, how and why that links things together or the similarities and contrasts that can help to make sense of everything.  These note are very much prompts to the memory rather than full or detailed explanations.

Please beware there may still be errors in these notes and if you spot any do let me know.
