Description

This three-day course is a fun and informative way to complete the WSET Level 2 wine qualification. Starting at 9am with tea and coffee, each session will include a delicious picnic lunch before resuming teaching for the afternoon. The course will finish each day at 5pm. Please note there will be additional revision exercises that you will be required to complete at home after each course day.

The WSET Level 2 Award in Wine is devised by the Wine & Spirit Education Trust and is the internationally recognised course that is followed by those entering the wine and hospitality trades. It can be comfortably achieved by those with little or no previous wine knowledge. A selection of wines will be tasted at each session, offering a broad introduction. The course also teaches tasting techniques to help you build tasting experience.

We cover the syllabus over three days and the examination is sat on the following Monday by way of a 50-question multiple-choice paper to be completed within one hour. We are also offering an additional exam sitting, for those with travel commitments, which will take place on the Friday 6th August at the end of the teaching day

The course cost covers WSET examination fees, WSET course materials, WSET accredited tuition, use of Berry Bros. & Rudd equipment and tasting samples. Course materials are sent to you in advance after registration and we recommend that you read them thoroughly before starting the course.
