You may register online for this course at the website below. his advanced wine course goes into detail on all the major wine regions of the world. It's a challenging course covering aspects of grape growing, winemaking, tasting, and all the major wines and spirits in the world. We strongly recommend taking the Intermediate course prior to the Advanced, although the Intermediate is NOT a pre-requisite. We have a large number of people from the trade taking this course, including sommeliers, wine buyers, retail staff, and wine writers. But many of the general wine enthusiasts get so hooked from the Intermediate course that they carry on to the Advanced. You will taste over 140 wines in the 15 week course. The 6 day course is perfect for those who cannot commit to 15 evenings. The study materials are mailed to you in advance of the course. During this course we taste at least 104 wines. The 6 day intensive course is suited to students who already have a sound knowledge of wines and are prepared for an intensive study period.During the wine course you will learn about:
The exam includes a blind tasting of 1 wine, a 50 question multiple choice paper and paper requiring 4 short answers. The pass mark is 55% in all 3 papers. We have over a 75% pass rate, but expect to study hard! |
