WSET® Level 2

En tant qu’amateur de vin, je voulais mieux comprendre le monde viticole. Alexandre n’était pas seulement passionné par le sujet, il nous a aussi fait profiter de sa vaste expérience du milieu à l’international et partager son savoir. Nous avons eu la chance de déguster une fantastique sélection de plus de 40 vins et j’ai fait plein de belles découvertes. Je me réjouis de commencer le prochain niveau!
