This summer, I will return to the University of Reims to teach another course on wine law at the Wine & Law Program.
This year, the Program is in its seventh session and will discuss topics related to trademark law and geographical indications for spirits. The course will focus on topics including introduction to wine marketing, the European protection of Geographical Indications, European trademark law, and Australian and U.S. protection of Geographical Indications and Trademarks. The faculty includes Stephen Charters, MW, Silvère Lefevre, Stefan Martin, Stephen Stern, and Theodore Georgopoulos.
The course takes place this year from June 19 to 28, 2017 in the heart of France’s eponymous Champagne region, which is a truly perfect setting for learning more about wine law and wine. The program also includes tastings, sightseeing, and socializing. To learn more about this year’s program, please visit Wine Law in the EU (7th Summer School).
Mr. Georgopoulos runs the Wine & Law Program at the University of Reims in the Champagne region of France. The Program includes the summer school session, hosted each year in English, as well as a one-year, full-time program, taught in French (DU vitivinicole et des spiritueux).
