The Level II certification builds upon the foundation established in the Level I Certification program. This is an intermediate level of certification. This is a seven day (60 contact hour) course.

In this Level II Certification program you must complete: (1) a written exam on viniculture, (2) individual written and tasting exams on major wine producing countries, (3) a practical exam on formal sommelier service, and (4) develop a personal tasting notebook that contains a minimum of 150 written individual tasting evaluations.

Hi Daniel,

Portugal has many autochthones grape varieties, red and whites.
White varieties are very interesting, with very different characters, but SYRIA also called Códega do Larinho is fantastic, with citrons aromas of tangerine and orange.
Portugal Dão region has the most gastronomic wines: fresh, intense, elegant with very nice acidity, made with autochthonous grapes from very particularly varieties.
Just try.
I am a producer in Portuguese Dão region, and I suggest you to taste an old Dão.

Just see what Paul White Thinks about as:

“So far, Portugal has managed to remain true to its traditions, while at the same time offering up a huge range of distinctive grape varieties and unusual wine styles precisely when many of us are tiring of endless New World makeovers of French varietals.

Dao has a lot going for it in that respect: first rate grape varieties firmly rooted in granite-based ‘terroir’ that sparkles back like diamonds, all this shaped by a growing season that’s relatively gentler and longer than other Portuguese regions. Although relatively unknown and sometimes tricky to pronounce, Dao’s red wines offer consumers genuinely new and exciting tasting experiences.”

Visit please our web-site, for now it’s just in Portuguese, but to see photos you don’t need any translation: www.quintadaboavista.eu

Hope to hear from you soon.

I please ask that if you know of any one who is wanting to learn about wine or expand on their expertise, that you mention the International Wine Guild and the upcoming wine certifications. We are trying to perpetuate our love of wine through a lifetime of wine education. Cheers!

Texas Wine Law

Do online stores that sale wine have the same legal privileges as actual store fronts that sale wine? i.e. TABC licensing? How do you license an online store?

Chandon Tasting @ Grove Wine Bar Kitchen at Lola savannah Wine Bar

July 30, 2009 from 7pm to 9pm
This is a last minute tasting, with limited quantities to pour.Chandon's pioneer heritage dates back to the actual invention of champagne. In 1690 a French monk by the name of Dom Pérignon stumbled upon a wine with a magical sparkling effervescence while acting as cellar master of a Benedictine abbey in Hautvillers. Recognizing something important about this felicitous accident, he set out to unlock the secret to its process and ultimately developed the traditional champagne method, or méthode…See More
