Resumo
This dissertation aim was to analyze the learning process of sensible knowledge demanded by the wine tasting practice in the training course for professional sommeliers. Therefore, aiming to use the methodological principles of autoethnography in order to understand something that is not visible when practiced by other people, I attended the training course for professional sommeliers. The course, composed of seven modules, was offered by the Brazilian Association of Sommeliers from the Rio Grande do Sul State, which gave me the title of professional sommelier. The experience gained in the course and in taking part in the community of practice formed by professionals from the wine sector made me able to produce the data of this research, whose main source was my body, through the senses and the capacity of making aesthetic judgments. The data was organized in order to show my journey as an apprentice from the periphery to center of the community. The findings show that the wine tasting practice is a process which involves activating perceptive faculties, appreciating, feeling, interpreting and judging aesthetically, and has in the body its locus. The wine tasting practice is composed of a ritual which involves non-human elements that enhance the sensations, the foundation of learning. The learning of sensible knowledge involved in the wine tasting happens through collective and individual practice. In the individual practice, the insertion of non-human elements, foreign to the practice, enhanced the learning process. The journey from periphery to the center of the community of practice happens through learning the learning curriculum and an appropriated vocabulary to express sensations and making aesthetic judgment. The learning of the situated curriculum happens through active participation in the community core and demand high level of personal commitment. The price of some wines was a limiting to the individual practice, which was minimized through empathic understanding
