Learn the art, science and business of wine
If you enjoy wine, you know every glass tells a story – of the soil, the grapes, the atmosphere and the aging. Have you ever wanted to help write that story? You can – and you don’t have to travel across the country. We asked Southwest Michigan’s best wineries to help us create a hands-on, all-inclusive winemaking program. In fact, it's the first and only commercial teaching winery in the Midwest.
Michigan alone has more than 100 wineries making $300 million of economic impact. You’ll learn from industry experts both in the classroom and at our commercial-sized facility. Plus, you’ll gain valuable experience working with local wineries. From grape growing to winemaking through tasting room managing, this program covers every part of the industry.
Why study wine and viticulture technology at LMC?
From ground to glass. You’ll learn all aspects of the wine industry, studying everything from the soil to the tasting room. We’ll cover marketing, sensory and chemical analysis, distribution and compliance.
Savor hands-on experience. Our program was hand-crafted by industry experts, led by program director Michael Moyer. You’ll learn from innovators in the field, surrounded by Southwest Michigan’s best wineries.
Raise a glass to your future. You can finish the wine and viticulture technology program in as little as a year. And, you’ll have the chance to intern with local and national winemakers.
