The WSET courses are among the most prestigious wine industry qualifications in the world and are ideal for beginners, connoisseurs, and wine and food industry professionals.

The curriculum for WSET’s world class certifications is top notch and rigorous, but Melanie makes it accessible, fun and engaging, all while ensuring a depth of understanding.

“I have been passionate about the Paso Robles wine region for decades and am so proud to have taught WSET classes here, since 2018, to over 300 students. Now, with the MWWine School named a WSET Approved Program Provider in San Luis Obispo County, I am looking forward to further broadening access to wine knowledge for the region’s community of industry professionals and wine enthusiasts,” said Melanie Webber DipWSET, Director of The MWWine School.

The WSET Level 1 Award in Wines class will take place Tuesday, August 15th, with WSET Level 2 Award in Wines taking place Monday, August 7th, Tuesday, August 8th and Monday, August 14th.

What some of Melanie’s Paso Robles students have to say:

“The curriculum for WSET’s world class certifications is top notch and rigorous, but Melanie makes it accessible, fun and engaging, all while ensuring a depth of understanding. Melanie’s classes are essential learning for anyone who is serious about expanding their wine education as well as for those who love wine, but also want to keep it real.” Neeta Mittal, founder and owner of LXV Wine in Paso Robles.

“My burning passion and desire to learn more about world wine led to classes, offered by the Wine & Spirit Education Trust (WSET) and an inspiring teacher/instructor named Melanie Webber. Thanks to Melanie’s natural and expert talents as a teacher, many of us succeeded in passing the beginner (Level 1), intermediate (Level 2) and more rigorous advanced (Level 3) awards in Wines.” Claire Westaway, Asst. Winemaker, RN Estate Vineyard & Winery.
