Infos

The Italian Wine Scholar certification is a comprehensive program divided into two parts: Unit 1 covers Northern Italy and Unit 2 encompasses Central and Southern Italy. Students gain a deep understanding of regions, grapes, and history. Taught by a world-class wine educator and Certified Sommelier, each Unit comprises six 3.5-hour sessions with guided wine tastings of 36 high-quality Italian wines. Final exams are given in person after each unit at the Zürich Wine Academy. Students who pass the Unit 1 and Unit 2 exams will receive the Italian Wine Scholar lapel pin and certificate and earn the right to the IWS post-nominal on the professional signature. The program is designed for serious wine enthusiasts and wine trade professionals with prior wine experience and is also beneficial for those pursuing Court of Master Sommeliers qualifications or WSET Level 3 & 4 Awards in Wine. Additional self-study is required for success. Space is limited to 12 students, so act today! All our classes are also streamed live and recorded via Zoom for the maximum flexibility of our students. With 24 hours advance notice, we can bottle the wines tasted in class in sterilized 50ml samples for students to taste while watching the recording or live stream.
