Cornell?s Viticulture & Enology major addresses the New York region?s unique challenges?the cool climate, soils, grape varieties, pests, and markets?while also providing a strong grounding in other regions? growing and winemaking techniques. Students work with a broad variety of grapes and vinification techniques to produce wines in a region with large variability between growing seasons. In New York, great wine comes with great challenges. Which is why our graduates can produce anywhere. The College of Agriculture and Life Sciences at Cornell is home to one of the top viticulture and enology programs in the world and is internationally recognized for its expertise in breeding table, juice and wine grapes adapted to cool climate growing regions. From developing innovative trellis systems, to breeding new varieties, to managing pests and nutrients, to siting vineyards and maximizing ?terroir,? to perfecting the art and science of wine making, Cornell?s teaching, research, and extension in viticulture and enology offer unsurpassed opportunities for grape growers and wine makers, as well as undergraduate and graduate students.
