Sommelier School

Look what I found in Denver! The International Wine Guild is located in my back yard! Since completing my thesis on wine marketing, I've been thinking of pursuing some sort of continued education in my wine studies. This is SO perfect.


What makes me extremely thrilled about this is the quality of the institution. Named by both the Wall Street Journal and Wine & Food magazine as one of the nation's top five wine schools, the International Wine Guild is also one of few accredited programs focused solely on wine. I can't wait to take a specific course in French regional wines! I am absolutely determined to grasp the fundamentals of terroir and tasting differences between the AOC wines, especially Bordeaux and Burgundy.

So now I have a new goal for the year - achieve my Level I certification. Would love to go for Level II as well, but we'll have to see what time I have available for that.
