WSET Level 3 Award in Wines Miami | Florida Wine Academy

WSET Level 3 Award in Wines at Florida Wine Academy

Florida Wine Academy offers WSET Level 3 in Miami with three study formats — online self-study, hybrid, and in-person — plus payment plans. Enroll with a WSET-certified educator with 10 years of experience.

If you have completed WSET Level 2 and are wondering what comes next, Level 3 is the answer. It is the qualification that separates casual wine lovers from serious students of wine.

What is WSET Level 3?

WSET Level 3 Award in Wines is an advanced qualification that covers still, sparkling, and fortified wines from around the world. You will learn why wines taste the way they do, how to evaluate quality, and how to use the WSET Systematic Approach to Tasting (SAT) with precision. The course requires a minimum of 84 hours of study and is assessed by a written theory exam and a blind tasting of two wines.

It is recognized globally by wine professionals, sommeliers, importers, retailers, and hospitality businesses.

Three ways to study

At Florida Wine Academy, we offer three formats so you can choose what fits your schedule and learning style.

Online Self-Study — Study at your own pace with access to all course materials. Best for independent learners who want flexibility.

Hybrid — A combination of online coursework and live sessions. You get structure without committing to a fixed weekly schedule.

In-Person — Classroom-based learning in Miami with guided tastings, group discussion, and direct access to your instructor.

All formats include the same exam and lead to the same internationally recognized certificate.

Payment plans available

We know Level 3 is an investment. Payment plans are available so you can get started without paying everything upfront. Contact us to discuss options.
