Oenologist

An oenologist is a specialist in oenology, the study and science of wine. Their primary task is to produce wines of high quality. In South Africa, the oenologist plays a central role in modern wine production by combining traditional techniques with innovative technology. Their responsibilities include selecting suitable grape varieties, managing fermentation, monitoring maturation, and determining the optimal time for bottling. Training to become an oenologist typically involves studying wine science at institutions such as Stellenbosch University. In addition, modern oenologists are increasingly engaged with issues such as sustainability, biodiversity, and the impact of climate change on viticulture. Their expertise is crucial in positioning South Africa as a producer of premium wines on the global market.
