Italian Wine Scholar unit one is a great course to immerse yourself in learning about the great wine regions of northern Italy.
For a wine fan you may just find yourself wanting to explore the many legendary regions in person.

Having already completed the Spanish and French Wine Scholar courses, I was looking forward to the Italian course. I was not disappointed with Unit One and am now looking forward to Unit Two.

In my opinion it helped me in my work, where we work only Italian wines, the maps help a lot, easy to use the website from the cell phone and the book is very complete, the only thing missing is to suggest some DOCG producers that you have to taste.

The IWS Italian Wine Scholar Unit 1 opened my mind and eyes to parts of Italy I knew nothing about and provided me with in-depth knowledge on the wines from Northern Italy regions. I now read the whole wine menu in Italian restaurants and look for wines I learned about. I have chosen Vermintino and Barbara recently instead of the standard Soave or Chianti and had the pleasure to introduce and explain to my friends.The course is well structured and very well run.

Wasatch Academy of Wine always executes and excellent program. Sheral Schowe has complete control of an excellent wine cellar for wines of the program, and has visited, and has a personal relationship, with many of the wineries, producers, winemakers and owners. Dr. Sue Geary, an educator, did an amazing job of presenting and controlling the class. She is extremely organized and generous with her personal and very complete study materials. She made my learning journey a joy!

I can highly recommend WSG's Italian Wine Scholar program both Units 1 and 2 to anyone looking for a deep-dive exploration into the world of Italian Wine. It certainly opened my eyes to a world I was previously, mostly unfamiliar with and is I'm sure just the beginning of a lifelong journey.

The IWS unit 1 is the best program to know about your northern italian wines. Every DOCG/DOC is so well explained with detailed maps it just makes it very interesting to read about every particular region. It’s going to be a great help for me to prepare for my Advanced Sommelier Certification.

The program laid out tons of useful information in a clear, understandable form. Italian wine is a world without end, and WSG managed to get just enough important details. I use the textbook for my work on a daily basis. I think it's a must-have for anyone dealing with Italian wine.

I work as a professor in the field of wine and I try to specialize as much as possible to bring reliable information to my students, and the programs at WSG are really fantastic and very comprehensive. They are extremely valuable for my learning and the development of my work. Congratulations to the institution for providing us with such a high level study!

The knowledge on each wine region is well covered and organized: from history to current 'wine in the bottle'. It gives students an understanding of not only the present but more importantly on what happened (be it in history, geography, viticultural practices and major events) which have led to the state of wine production and wine we see today in various parts of Italy. This course adds depth when one seeks to understand and appreciate Italian wines.
