Everything is presented a clear, concise format that is easy to follow! The printable maps make it very easy to follow along as you read! I also enjoyed the e learning modules! Now I am travelling Italy and I can choose my wines based on the knowledge I have learned!

IWS Unit 2 opened up a whole new world of fascinating varietals and appellations that I was previously unfamiliar with. Every chapter was like embarking on a new adventure. Many of these interesting gems have since found there way into my cellar.

I really liked the interactiveness of the courses. I like the online course and quizzes. I liked the country only study, ie, Italy. I have been wanting to find a course provider for some time like this. WSG isn't only a book like WSET, it's both. I would say, makes it more fun to learn. I do think that a little proofreading for spelling errors and whatnots should be looked at. Other than that, I look forward to my next course!

The course is very detailed and covers a lot of regions and grapes. It is necessary to do homework but if you do then a pass is perfectly achievable.

There are many programs out there for Italian wine, each focusing on different areas. As one who studied mostly grape varieties, it was interesting for me to learn more about lakes, rivers and other topographical features that were of significant importance for this program. For those that HAVE taken other programs, the WSG is a great way to round out your learning in Italian Wine and look at things from a new and different perspective.

I love IWS courses and the new updated format of the manual and the ability to read the manual online too is a great change.
However, the e-learning modules could be but into smaller sections and have better quality and be updated to reflect the manual.
I have now done IWS and FWS and looking forward to doing SWS at some point.

As an Italian wine lover, it meant a lot for me to go in depth of all the regions in Italy and its history at the same time. The books are very well-written and can be repeatedly used as reference in the future, too.

The Italian Wine Scholar program was thorough and well written. Given the amount of Italian wine material, it is no wonder they require 2 units to cover all 20 regions.

I remember completing my degree in Viticulture and Enology in Italy and not understanding its wine regions, traditions, and styles. The Italian Wine Scholar program changed that for me, it gave me this depth of knowledge I was seeking and provided this bigger picture of the industry.

I love the wine scholar program. They’ve thought of everything. Written explanations, maps, side notes, pronunciation as well as quizzes. You learn about more than just grapes and wine. The history is fascinating.
