About the Author

Glen Green is an independent consultant winemaker who studied oenology and viticulture at the Charles Sturt University of Australia, gaining a degree in Bachelor of Applied Science (Winemaking).

His winemaking, wine education seminars, wine tastings and wine travels have taken him to many of the wonderful wine regions and countries of the world, including Australia, New Zealand, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Portugal and Madeira, South Africa, United States of America, and Canada.

Glen was in the winning team at the 2000 Australasian Wine Options Competition, a winetasting competition that tests a contestant's ability to blindly identify a wine from thousands of possibilities by correctly answering a series of five questions on each wine tasted.

He also supplies and distributes wine appreciation and education products throughout Australia and the rest of the world through his independent company, Vinum Vitae Pty Ltd.

Glen's passion for educating others about wine led to the development of the Essential Wine Tasting Guide©. In it, Glen draws from his wealth of knowledge and experience, and his research of grape varieties and wine styles of the world.

With a thirst for knowledge and a passion to match, Glen has forged a reputable name for himself and is well respected amongst his colleagues.

Glen Green is available for consultant winemaking, wine education, wine judging and corporate public speaking.
