Level 3

Level 3 Course in Wines

Sommelier Certification Qualification level

1800 €

Eurosommelier Level 3 course is the last and certainly the most exciting phase in order to be certified as a sommelier. It focuses on how to pair dishes with wine. This technique is a clear concept with specially developed teaching and learning materials and a sophisticated methodology for analysing suitable food and wine combinations. The difference between a certified Sommelier and those that have a generic wine knowledge, is also the understanding of chemical, organolectical and cultural technical expertise on choosing the proper wine for every food pairing, course, occasion and event. The flag on the right shows the language in which each course is taught.

About the course

In this last step the students will learn how to pair food and wine as well as in depth knowledge in oenology. We will combine theory and practice and try out different combinations of food and wine in each lesson. The food will be prepared with consideration for allergies and food preferences, as well as to provide a solid foundation for fully understanding and mastering the art of wine and food pairing. After passing the exam, you became certified Sommelier, well prepared to work in both the restaurant industry and the wine industry, or as free lance in the immense world of wine. But even those who just want to expand their interest in wine will find this course more than useful.
