Developed by Master Sommelier David Glancy, this hands-on program is designed to help students master the art of advanced beverage service. Table-side drills will help improve tray, sparkling wine and decanting techniques. Tackle wax sealed bottles and practice proper restaurant service with Coravin™. Learn the gold standards of hospitality as you encounter challenging situations and customers. Explore advanced food and wine pairing theories and how to apply these skills to your own wine, beer, spirit & cocktail list. Enhance your salesmanship and improve your profit management skills throughout the program.
Perfect for experienced professionals interested in providing better service on the job and challenging for students preparing for competitions or upper level exams with any sommelier credentialing body.
Students focused on blind tasting or preparing for upper level WSET, SWE, or sommelier exams are encouraged to also consider our Advanced Tasting Program.
