Customer testimonials
Alena Rath recommends European Sommelier School A fantastic school with Umberto as a very warm and insightful teacher on the subject of wine.
ottima scuola con professionalità ed estrema disponibilità. grazie infinite!
Thank you for my sommelier training at the European Sommelier School. Small working groups, some of which are very informal, impart in-depth knowledge. Particularly noteworthy is the focus on pairing wine with food. Even after completing all the courses, we are still in contact. Highly recommended.
I highly recommend this school. Whether for work or simply for pleasure, you truly have the opportunity to learn so much, not only through books and lectures, but also through tastings and the stories of occasional guests. Furthermore, Umberto is able to teach and convey his passion for wine with a unique lightness and charm. […]
An excellent experience! Well-structured course, clear information, and passionate teachers. Thanks to my professor, Umberto Galli Zugaro, my passion for wine has become more than just a hobby. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to deepen their knowledge of the art of wine.
Meine Reise in der Weinwelt hat genau hier begonnen – tolle Lehrer:innen und ein großartiges Sommelier-Netzwerk. Totally recommended!
Sehr sehr gute Sommelier Kurse! Sehr professionell und gleichzeitig herzlich geführt von Umberto Galli Zugaro. Man lernt Weine zu verstehen und zu schätzen, ob für beruflichen oder privaten Zweck. Die Seminare oder Ausbildung in Italienisch oder Deutsch kann ich nur empfehlen und würde jederzeit weiter machen.
My experience at the Europäische Sommelier Schule was extraordinary. Thanks to the passionate and knowledgeable guidance of President Umberto, I was able to deepen my understanding of a fascinating world. The lessons were engaging and educational – a journey I highly recommend to anyone who loves wine.
Avvincente, spumeggiate e conviviale, il corso di sommelier di primo livello con il docente Umberto Galli Zugaro è un must per tutti quelli che amano il vino di qualità (e siamo tanti) e desiderano imparare ad apprezzarlo ed ad abbinarlo come si deve.
In der ESS wird man systematisch die Wissenschaft des Weins und auch des Sommeliers lernen und praktisch üben. Nach dem Prozess der Kurse habe ich nicht nur Grundkenntnisse von Wein auch die Fähigkeit , die ich weiter selbst lernen kann. Wer möchte über Wein mehr wissen und auch lernen ? Komm ! ESS ist der beste Auswahl […]
I am currently finishing the 3rd level of the sommelier course (in Italian – I am Polish) and am fully satisfied with the quality of seminars, flexibility and professionalism of the teacher – Mr Umberto Galli Zugaro – and would like to recommend it to everyone who wants to learn how to talk about wine, […]
It was an amazing experience. The location was stunning and an amazing place to be tasting wines. Our instructor was so knowledgeable and I’m really glad I had the chance to learn from them.
