The 3 Masters will share their experience and knowledge during the two-day course, which includes the Certification Exam (held on 1st, 2nd and 3rd March, 2008)
Covering the following topics:
- Introduction to Viticulture
- Vinification
- Wines of the World
- Spirits and Liqueurs
- Beverage Service, and
- Tasting Techniques.
The three masters will also work together, during the course, to take candidates through a blind-tasting of more than 20 wines from around the world, sharing the most critical information a Sommelier must know from a bottle of wine. This exercise will transform one from a shy, soft-spoken floor server to a bold, confident professional Sommelier.
