Wine Course Skill Levels 

Course Levels

To help you select the right course we grade the courses we offer at three levels, which offer you a clear path from beginner to advanced.

Level 1

These are introductory courses for people who do not have any real knowledge of wines, grape varieties or how wine is produced. The wines you will taste on level 1 courses will be of good quality – mostly wines that retail between £5 and £8 a bottle

Level 2

If you have some wine knowledge and are interested in expanding your horizons, this is the level for you. We use wines that normally retail between £6 and £12 a bottle, and most courses include a full three course lunch.

We would expect all people attending level 2 courses to have a reasonable knowledge of major wine producing countries and the major grape varieties, sufficient knowledge to select which wines they know they will enjoy from a supermarket shelf.

Many Level 2 and Level 3 wine courses are paired together across a weekend to enable you to accelerate your learning and enjoyment of a particular area of wine.

Level 3

These courses are designed for those who have a reasonable knowledge of wine, but who may want this knowledge to move up a level. At Level 3 we offer a series of Masterclasses using wines that retail between £12 and £40 a bottle, and each course includes a four course lunch.

We would expect all people attending the Masterclasses to have a good knowledge of the area, or grape varieties, being covered in the course (to the standard of our level 2 courses would be ideal). These courses expand your appreciation in wines by introducing you to some of the best wines available from some of the best producers, and you will look in much more detail at what makes a great wine.
