WSET Level 1 In Wines - Ocala, Florida

Cost: $429

The WSET Level 1 Wines is a basic level introduction to wine, for those who want to start a career in the wine business or for wine enthusiasts. In this class, we taste 9 different wines and learn about major grape varieties, wine regions, storage, and the service of wine. We also do an interesting food and wine pairing. Learn more about what we will cover during the class here: WSET Level 1 in Wines Specification (2022).

The price includes the WSET Level 1 in Wines Study Guide, tuition, all wines, printed materials, and the exam. There is a $9 flat fee for shipping of study materials. Students who attend the classes in Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach, and Tallahassee also receive ISO tasting glasses to take home, which accounts for the discrepancy in price.
