“It’s like a crash course that launches you into another level quicker than I would’ve thought. IT opened a door I didn’t know existed. It was a TOTAL GAME CHANGER. How quickly it gives you tools to level up on analyzing wine.” -Happy Customer
This 6 week course shares Master-level tools, techniques and knowledge to transform you from feeling frustrated, overwhelmed, or embarrassed when wine tasting to confidence when you taste, describe, talk about and buy wines.
Are you sick of feeling overwhelmed, confused and ready to unlock their palate’s potential and achieve tasting victory?
Would you LOVE to stop feeling stuck and start taking the right steps towards FINALLY achieving wine swag and confidence!
Let's do this!
Fun fact:
"Made popular by Gladwell's book, Outliers: The Story of Success, the principle states that in order to become world class in any field, you need 10,000 hours of deliberate practice. This means 417 days' worth of hours, or 3 hours a day for 3,333 days--a little over 9 years."
This course is based on the thousands of hours I spent studying wine and becoming a Master of Wine (it took me 13 years all together), as well as my 17 years experience teaching wine in San Diego! I share tasting exercises I personally used to win the Bollinger Medal of Tasting in 2018 and become an MW.
I am sharing my decades of knowledge, expertise, and proprietary techniques I have personally implemented for only $599 for the online course.
“Highlighting the interplay between alcohol and tannin in red, and delineating between level of tannins and texture of tannins and the mouthfeel is awesome.” -Recent user
I am so looking forward to helping you polish your wine chops!
Cheers!

Perspective from previous Flavor Fluency graduates
In each video, I learn something I did not know. It improves my ability to taste and understand wines. I did not know the depth of the interrelationship between acid, tannin, and alcohol, and how one gets confused for the other.

PRICING CLARIFICATION:
Thank you for in interest in joining this unique course! I did the math and I believe I have spent over 18,000 hours in my personal studies and teaching about wine over the past 17 years! I am now sharing my unique perspective and success with you in this course!
With that said, the cost of the course is designed for one person and NOT to be shared with others (with the exception of the $200 discount for 2 or more people). Thank you for respecting my proprietary content and extremely hard work. I created all the graphics, activities and all the videos from scratch spending hundreds of hours in addition to my Master of Wine perspective that I share in the course (On side note: who knew I loved graphic design so much, LOL). Thank you so much for honoring this, I appreciate that!
