This is an entry level course intended for anyone new to the world of wine. It's open to both starters in the hospitality and retail industries - and to you if you just want to start learning more about what's in your glass. 

The course aims to

• give a grounding in the major grape varieties
• cover the essentials of food and wine matching
• demystify the world of wine for beginners
• give a real confidence boost in talking about and serving wine
  

We'll taste different samples of each grape variety as we talk through them and you'll get excellent quality study materials from WSET, the Wine and Spirits Education Trust.

At the end of the day there'll be a food and wine matching challenge and a simple multiple choice exam.

If you pass (100% of our candidates have done!), you'll get an internationally-recognised qualification.

The course is held in our Cherry Hinton Road branch. It's an informal and relaxed environment, and so is the teaching: rigorous but fun. If you'd like any more info, don't hesitate to contact wine tutor Steve or any member of the team, who will be happy to help.
