About WSET LEVEL1 Award In Wines:
“I began my wine education journey in 2005 in London with the WSET Level 2 Award in Wines. I later experienced the WSET Level 1 Award in Wines from a different perspective — as a certified WSET educator.
The WSET Level 1 course offers an excellent foundation for those who are new to wine. It is a well-structured program designed to provide a solid introduction to the world of wine.
For me, the most enjoyable and interactive parts of the course are the food and wine pairing segment and the wine list exploration, both of which offer valuable hands-on learning experiences.”
