Ready to Go Beyond the Basics?

You know your way around a wine list, but you’re ready for more. You want to understand why wines taste the way they do—and how to tell a great one from a good one.

Imagine tasting through 30 wines from around the world, learning to identify regions, grape varieties, and styles with clarity. You can decode labels, recognize quality, and speak with genuine confidence—whether at a dinner table or in a professional setting.

The WSET Level 2 Award in Wines at Napa Valley Wine Academy takes you deeper into the world’s wine regions and styles. You’ll explore grape varieties, sparkling and fortified wines, and learn the WSET’s Systematic Approach to Tasting (SAT) alongside our expert instructors.

With a decade of experience helping students succeed, we’ve built a hands-on, engaging course filled with tastings, group activities, mock exams, and dedicated instructor support.

Join America’s most awarded wine school and take your knowledge—and confidence—to the next level.
