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. Mailing of Study Guide to continental USA is included in the price. Students who attend the classes in Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach, and Tallahassee also receive 6 ISO tasting glasses to take home, which accounts for the discrepancy in price.
