A special offer to help you make the most of learning!
/I’ve got some WSET courses coming up and a way you can double your experience - register for an in-class course, and you’ll also get an online course of your choice as a complementary bonus!
I have been both leading and attending a lot of webinars during these Covid times but I have to say, as much as I love my Zoom tastings and discussions, they augment and do not replace in-person learning where you can share the same wine with a group of equally passionate people and compare notes. That’s why I’m so happy Fine Vintage Ltd is reopening selected in-person classes with lots of safety precautions in place.
Social distancing is vital, as is wearing a mask except when you are tasting. We provide temperature checks and sanitizer and take exception precautions in cleaning our class space in coordination with our venues like the Hotel Intercontinental in Miami, The Whitley in Atlanta and the Kimpton Nine Zero in Boston, all locations where I’ll be teaching in the next few months. I strongly believe that wine is a wonderful vehicle for sharing experiences, one of those experiences being the sharing of course. Even with social distancing, we can safely do this in person with some straightforward precautions. You can see the list of extensive precautions we are taking on this page on the Fine Vintage website, and while there you will also see an explanation of our special offer that gives you complementary access to one of Fine Vintage’s excellent online courses just for registering for an in-person course.
My favorite of the online courses is the Food and Wine Pairing course - an excellent chance to explore and review the elements that help wine and food go together (or, occasionally, not go together). Why pairings work and why wine and food may clash is a fascinating subject and we cover it thoroughly in this course I helped assemble. There are other courses as well - a chance to brush up on spirits, for example, or an online version of Fine Vintage’s own the Level 1and Level 2 courses to use as preparation for the in-person WSET course experience. The choice of course is up to you once you register for one of our in-person classes.
The real gem here though is the actual WSET course you’ll be taking. I’ll be offering Level 1 courses February 27 (Miami), Atlanta (April 24) and Boston (May 15), and Level 2 in Miami (date pending but likely in July), Atlanta (April 10, 11 & 25) and Boston (May 1,2 & 16). I also have the French Wine Professional course coming up in Miami and Atlanta as well as the fantastic (and fascinating) Sensory Masterclass in Miami and Atlanta.
After a year of sheltering in place, let’s take our best precautions and safely get together to share some wine and explore what goes into supplying that marvelous liquid in our glasses. For more class information, check out the appropriate pages on this website, and don’t forget the special bonus - it’s available only for a limited time, so let’s commit to a wine experience and have a (socially responsible) blast!
