Course aims
The primary aim of the course is to use the geography of wine as an exemplar of the
interactions of physical and human processes in time and space. The cultivation of vines
and the production and consumption of wine will be considered in a geographical context
through a focus on spatial variations in the relevant physical as well as economic, cultural
and social factors in wine production and consumption. Special emphasis will be placed
on the physical and cultural dimensions of the concept of 'terroir', the impact of
globalisation on the world of wine, and the likely future impact of climatic change on the
geography of viticulture and wine production.

INFORMATION ON COURSE COMPONENTS
Lectures
The primary role of lectures is to provide an introduction to key topics in the course and
guidance for your own learning on the course. Some lectures will be more specific
examining particular topics in more detail, but most are designed to provide a broad
grounding in the subject and guidance on key issues and points of debate.
Special presentation by an external contributor
This will provide detailed insights into a specific topic.
Film, radio broadcast and web links
The documentary film Mondovino will provide additional perspectives on wine in the
context of globalisation. Radio broadcasts and web material accessible through WebCT,
or as links in emails circulated to students on the course, provide commentaries,
discussions and opinions on various aspects of the geography of wine.
Wine Quizzes
There will be brief wine quizzes throughout the course that will give you an idea of your
factual knowledge relevant to the course and prompt you to develop this further.
Course reading
Reading is a fundamental element of learning for the course. The general course reading
provides an extensive listing of relevant books and articles and includes topics not
specifically covered in lectures. It also provides sources for the class and degree essay
topics. Key references are also provided as follow-up reading for each lecture.
Class essay
The purpose of the class essay is to challenge you to work on a broad range of material at
an early stage in the course, and to enable feedback to be provided that will assist you in
preparing your degree essay. A list of essay titles is provided below. The essay must not
exceed 1500 words in length and should incorporate appropriate diagrams, maps and
tables. The length of the essay (in words, exclusive of tables and references) should be
indicated on the first page. To assist the return of class essay please ensure that your
7
name is on the front page. Feedback will not be provided on class essays submitted after
the specified deadline. There is no mark penalty for failure to submit a class essay,
although not submitting one means that you miss an important opportunity to receive
feedback prior to preparing your degree essay.
Class exam
If you wish to produce practice answers to exam questions then these can be submitted to
the course organiser up to 10 working days prior to the date of the degree examination for
the course. They should be placed in Professor Summerfield’s pigeon-hole by the
Institute of Geography office and, if possible, they will be marked within 48 hours.
Marked exam answers can be collected from the Geography Office. You should select
questions from the specimen paper or one of the previous degree exam papers for the
course. You should write your name on the essay and indicate whether it is an
unprepared answer, or a prepared answer where you have selected a particular question
and prepared an answer prior to writing it. Submitting a class exam is not compulsory,
although failure to do so means that you miss an opportunity to receive feedback prior to
taking the degree exam.
Group project
Information on this will be provided in the session in Week 8. It is extremely important
that all students attend this session. The project will be undertaken to a tight schedule
and will require full cooperation between students in each group and very careful time
management. Each student should be prepared to spend the equivalent of two days full
time work between the 9th and 14th of November on the group project so that all project
presentations are ready for the Week 9 session. Given submission deadlines and work
required on other courses that you are taking you will need to plan your academic work
across all your courses during this period carefully and well in advance.
Degree essay
The degree essay provides the opportunity to study a course topic in depth, including
those not covered specifically or in detail in lectures. The essay must be of a maximum
length of 2000 words (exclusive of tables (except where very substantial amounts of text
are involved), diagrams and references); the number of words in the essay should be
indicated on the front page. You must select one of the topics for the degree essay listed
below. The front page of your degree essay should be clearly labelled ‘Geography of
Wine’ and must state the title of the degree essay topic that you have selected. In order to
maintain anonymity during marking do not write your name or matriculation number on
your degree essay.
8
Office times
These are available for students to raise queries and receive advice and feedback on any
components of the course.
Degree examination
This will test your overall knowledge and understanding of the material covered in the
course. Questions specifically and solely on the topics set for the degree essay will not be
included in the degree examination.

Web resources
There are a large number of websites on wine, but these are mostly focused on tasting
notes or selling wine and therefore are not generally useful sources for the course.
However, the sites run by Jamie Goode (author of Wine Science) (www.wineanorak.com)
and Andrew Jefford (author of The New France) ( www.andrewjefford.com ) contain
useful information and commentary, although the usual caution about website material –
that it is rarely peer-reviewed and therefore may be of uncertain reliability – still applies.
A website that is very useful for data on, and developments in, the wine industry is that of
the International Organisation of Vine and Wine (Organisation Internationale de la
Vigne et du Vin) ( www.oiv.org ). A link to a PowerPoint presentation of a statistical
overview of wine production and consumption (but also including other grape production
data) given at the 8th General Assembly of the OIV in June 2010 is at:

_lang=33#6218132
Go to the bottom of the page to download a pdf of the statistical report.
Many individual vineyards/wineries, as well as larger wine producers and organisations
related to the wine trade, have their own websites and these can contain useful
information, especially in relation to up-to-date information and recent developments in
the wine industry. The general rule that should be applied is that if a type of information
is available in a conventionally published form, especially in a refereed journal, then this
should be used in preference to web sources. Another web resource that is particularly
35
useful is Google Earth as it provides high-resolution 3D imagery of many viticultural
areas. Such imagery can be extremely useful in illustrating the topographic context of
specific vineyard sites.
Another useful web resource is that of sessions at the Institute of Masters of Wine
symposium ‘Forging Links’ that took place in Bordeaux in June 2010. The videos record
discussions by wine producers, suppliers, commentators and journalists that provide
viewpoints and insights that are relevant to the course. The videos can be accessed at:
http://www.mastersofwine.org/en/symposia/bordeaux-2010/forging-links-videos/
Radio programmes
Two 30-minute BBC Radio 4 programmes are available on WebCT – one on English
sparkling wine and the prospects for wine production in the UK, and the other on climatic
and environmental change and wine.
Interviews with wine producers
Interviews with four wine producers in Western Australia are available for you to listen
to on WebCT. I recorded them during a visit to Australia at the end of 2009 and they
range across a number of topics covered in the course. The interviewees are:
Judi Culham, of Frankland Estate, Frankland River (www.franklandestate.com.au)
Vanya Cullen, of Cullen Wines, Margaret River (www.cullenwines.com.au)
John Horgan, of Salitage, Pemberton (www.salitage.com.au)
Dan Pannell, of Picardy, Pemberton (www.picardy.com.au)
Previous guest contributors
These are video recordings of sessions with guest contributors to the course in previous
years and are available on WebCT.
Andrew Jefford: this is a session with the wine writer Andrew Jefford (who presented the
radio programme on English sparkling wine listed above) in which he answers a wide
range of questions from students on the geography of wine.
David Clark: this contribution is from a Scot who produces wine in Burgundy and
outlines both vineyard practices and wine-making methods.
36
Dr Marion Demossier: these two contributions from a French social anthropologist
examine terroir in Burgundy in the context of the bid for UNESCO World Heritage
status, and the concept of territoriality in the context of French wine-drinking culture.
