The Triangle Wine School, run by Master of Wine Sheri Sauter Morano,

is very pleased to offer the wine certifications of the UK-based Wine
and Spirits Education Trust (WSET).  The WSET was founded in 1969 to
provide high quality education and training in wines and spirits.
Since then, it has grown into the foremost international body in the
field of wines and spirits education, with a suite of sought-after
qualifications.  Whether you are a member of the wine trade or simply
a wine lover, the WSET classes offered by the Triangle Wine School
will add to your understanding and appreciation of wine.  The Triangle
Wine School’s WSET classes are a unique opportunity to learn about
wine in a structured classroom setting with an experienced, certified
instructor.
The first class to be offered will be the Level II – Intermediate
Certificate course (Level III to be offered in the Fall).

(classes will be approximately 3 hours in length) with a final session
that will consist of a one-hour, multiple-choice examination.  Wine

About the Triangle Wine School:
The Triangle Wine School was founded by Master of Wine Sheri Sauter
Morano in order to provide Triangle residents access to premier wine
education courses.  Ms. Sauter Morano began her own wine career with
the WSET classes at the International Wine Center in New York City
over a decade ago.  She holds several WSET certifications, is a
Certified Wine Educator, and a Master of Wine.  The Master of Wine
(MW), a title widely considered the highest credential that can be
obtained in the wine trade, is only held by 298 people in the world.
Ms. Sauter Morano was the youngest American woman to earn the MW
qualification in 2003.

WSET qualifications are part of the UK qualifications framework, and
the education courses leading to WSET qualifications are an invaluable
source of information for students to enhance their knowledge of wines
and spirits. WSET qualifications are not a guarantee of employment or
career progression, nor do they form part of any regulated
qualifications framework outside the UK.
