You will taste some fantastic wines and experiment with wine and food matching exercises. It's all in a fun and relaxed atmosphere with plenty of opportunities to ask questions.

The Foundation exam involves a multiple choice paper consisting of 30 questions and a portfolio of tasting notes (which we help you write). We have over a 95% pass rate! The exam takes place at the end of the 1 day course, and at the end of the last evening of the 4 week course. It usually takes about 30-45 minutes to complete.

It's an awesome course - over 75% of students continue to the Intermediate.
