Oenology

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Oenology (BrE) or enology (AmE) is the science and study of all aspects of wine and winemaking from the grape harvest to bottle. An expert in the field of oenology is known as an oenologist.

The name is derived from the Greek term, oenos (οίνος), which means wine, and the suffix -logy (from the Greek λόγος, meaning speech or study).
