*The WSET Diploma in Wines is an advanced qualification in wine knowledge offered by the Wine & Spirit Education Trust (WSET). It is one of the most respected wine certifications in the world and is often a stepping stone to becoming a Master of Wine (MW).
The Diploma is like a master’s degree in wine, covering everything from grape growing and winemaking to global wine regions, business, and blind tasting. It is designed for professionals in the wine industry but is also pursued by serious wine enthusiasts. The program takes around 2 to 3 years to complete and involves in-depth study, exams, and tasting assessments.
