Italian Wine Scholar Unit 2 Online - Independent Study Format

If you are an enthusiast about wine you should go to any wine course. If you really want to go deep in knowing everything about wines from Italy (or Spain and/or France) you must go for a WSG course!

Being a Diploma Graduate I found the the depth of this study to become an IWS was VERY thorough indeed!

I would highly recommend this course for anyone who seriously wants to take a deep dive into Italian wine. The content covers the hundreds of DOC/DOCGs, and their fascinating native grape varieties in great detail, not only giving you a great understanding of the wines but also the history and culture of every Italian wine region.

The IWS is a very comprehensive, super specific and well-structured program. Thank you Tanya and Alberto at The Cellar Muse - You are awesome!

Very enjoyable course that helps to demystify Italian wine.

I tasted some fantastic wines, learned a lot and met fantastic people.

Highly recommended.

Excellent in all respects!

Now that I have completed all four WSG offerings , France, Spain , Italy 1 and Italy 2, I am feeling totally lost .

Please WSG, give us some more !

As an enthusiastic amateur I found the whole experience suited my current level of knowledge and my desire for more

I would recommend these courses to anyone who is interested in improving their knowledge and enjoyment of wine

Superb energy and interactive communication from instructors Tanya Morning Star and Alberto Interiano. A fun and fulfilling educational course, overall.

The Italian Wine Scholar program is a great option for anyone wanted to delve into the fascinating world of Italian wine. Whether you're a person with years of experience or are just getting interested in wine, the depth of information this course offers will surely prove invaluable.

Looking forward to the next Scholar programme, whichever country you choose !

I am happy to have taken the course and look forward to further exploring the wine-regions of the land of vines. Cin cin.

The WSG does a wonderful job of portraying difficult information going down to the nitty gritty in an easy-to-follow way. I've been studying wine for a long time and I always learn something new and that keeps these programs so fun and fresh.

IWS is a truly comprehensive course, that goes much deeper than general wine certifications. IWS is absolutely essential for anyone who deals in Italian wine: merchants, restaurateurs, sommeliers.

Throughly enjoyed the course, though I think it would take years to truly be an ‘Italian Wine Scholar’!

Overall, really liked the course, it is a great introduction to italian wines. Feel I know much more know than before.

I enjoyed the WSG Italian wine scholar distance learning option. It allowed me to study around my current work schedule. The information was clear, easy to understand and the program helped me to develop my unquenchable thirst for wine knowledge.

Thank you!

I enjoyed the Italian Wine Scholar Program very much. I consider it one of the most detailed and comprehensive programs to learn about Italian wines. I highly recommend it. Saluti!

This programme gave me the tools to finally understand Italian wine with its grapes and different appellations, good job!

I love Wine Scholar Guild programs. They are a comprehensive look at the history, people, grapes, terroir, and food that go into the amazing wines of the world.

The IWS is by far the most comprehensive program about Italian wines. The rich material is designed to be logical, presenting key points of history, geography and climate, linked all those elements to grapes and traditions to each region. A truly delightful journey of culture, knowledge and learning about the fantastic world of wine. I highly recommend the IWS program. Congratulations to the WSG team!

With WSC I discovered and understood dynamics about Italian wine that are hard to find in other programs, depens into the history, geography, traditions of each individual region as a starting point
to describe the grape varieties used and the different denominations of origin.
Not only can you get to know Italian wine in depth, but discover the whole Italy!

I loved the IWS program (U1 and U2) because it gave a good overview and somewhat in depth look into Italy's many DOC and DOCGs and their grapes. It was a good challenge to conquer the history and appellations of the 20 regions. Now, I feel almost complete (I still need to taste all the native grapes ;)) in my Italian wine studies, or have I only started. After completing the IWS and VIA certifications, I can say my journey into Italy has only begun, proper! I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to learn Italy without being overwhelmed.

IWS program is absolutely great.
Thanks for your service.

IWS is really a comprehensive and in-depth course.
The course helped me a lot to deepen my knowledge about Italian wines.

This is a terrific course for a systematic comprehensive overview of Italian wines, region-by-region. Overall, a terrific learning experience ... as the course materials are top notch (especially the on-line educational portal).

Very comprehensive study materials.

Very comprehensive course on Central and Southern Italy and the material on each region is very well structured

I’ve done two independent studies online with the wine scholar program. Both have been excellent and have greatly increased my knowledge of each area studied. I highly recommend these programs if you have interest in increasing your wine knowledge.

With WSG you learn so much more about the history, geography and culture of the wine regions rather than just the wine. It not only had giving me the ability to better understand the wines of Central and Southern Italy, but now the confidence to go explore, purchase the wines to share with friends and family.

I couldn't expect more! Great job everyone!
