"Dear Georges - I wish to congratulate you for the very interesting course you organised and for the quality and detail of the lectures you presented us. I admit to have learnt more about wine and had loads of fun.
Many thanks and I look forward to another original wine course you may be organising."
David Xuereb - Malta

"I never knew if I should pursue a career in the wine trade. But after studying this wine course, I think I have actually found my calling. My only 'wish' is that the wine distributor who employs me would have offered me this class a few years ago when I started out."
Adriana Lapin - London, UK

“It was a corker of a course! Now I'm enrolled in the International Guild of Master Sommelier's certificate program and, I can say, your 'Honours Brevet Assessing Wine Methodically' is a great addition to that course work."
Kim Cewly - New York, USA

E-LEARNING

E-learning technologies work. Perhaps one might find it curious how wine can be taught over the net - "without tasting it together", you ponder? Well, if one can learn how to play the violin via e-teaching, one can surely master the subject of wine - after all, tasting comes natural to us and all we need is guidance. Check out this video to see how it works!
