The WSET Level Two Exam Walkthrough - Part Six - Service, Storage, Food and Wine
The WSET Level Two Exam Walkthrough - Part Six - Service, Storage, Food and Wine
In this video series I take a detailed look at WSET Level 2
This video is all about Learning Outcome Six - Understanding the service and storage of wine as well as food and wine pairing
The WSET Level 2 Award in Wines is intended for people who have little or no prior knowledge. It is suitable wherever a good level of wine knowledge is required to underpin job skills and competencies, for example in the customer service and sales functions of hospitality, retailing and
wholesaling industries. It is also useful for those who have a general interest in wine and wish to broaden their knowledge.
Successful candidates will be able to describe and compare the styles of wines produced from internationally and regionally important grape varieties, interpret wine labels from the main wine producing regions of the world and give basic guidance on appropriate selection and service, as
well as understand the principles of wine tasting and evaluation.

I really can’t thank you enough for this series. Although I have read the material many times, I can’t retain much that I read. This style of study is truly the only way I can learn. Thank you so very much! Because of you, I made a 100 on my level one. I truly am grateful.
Watched your WSET level two exam walkthrough few days before my exam. Happy to share that I have passed! Thank you for your guidance and tips!

Good luck with it. Hope it all goes well.
When you are talking about cork taint, I believe that you mis-spoke. Cork taint is actually referring to TCA, not when the cork allows oxygen to get into the bottle and thus "oxidize" the wine, which is cork FAILURE (whether it is from a poor cork from the start OR when a bottle has been stored inproperly and the cork dries out.) Just wanted to clarify. Thank you for your videos!
Thank you. My exam is on 30th March. Gonna have classes on 28, 29 and 30th too. Wish me luck 😊
Thank you so much! I really appreciate your videos. I'll be taking the L2 exam on April 20th. I'm not thrilled that our exam has moved online...I'm used to paper & pencil. Certainly don't need the extra stress of an unexpected technological horror show!

Going to write my exam tomorrow 26 April 2022
Hi GE, so I am sitting my WSET level 2 soon, online as its covid. I have a question regarding the exam that my online tutor hasn't really been able to answer and I wonder if you may know the answer/ anyone in the comments. We are provided a textbook in which to learn from, now the textbook goes into (what I believe to be) a-lot of detail. Take Chardonnay for example; the book details, how its grown, what type of climate produces what type of yield, the main countries, the main regions in those countries and then to specific details about individual vineyards, (named ofcourse) and how they differ (south facing slope etc). For this exam of which I want to achieve high marks should I really know this level of detail for every single grape variety? Looking at the recommended study time it seems I have far surpassed the supposed total for study time and yet I'm roughly 7/8 wines in. The time I am spending seems natural when trying to learn and remember tens to hundreds of individual vineyards, their names & how they differ - ontop of everything else in the book. Please let me if I am maybe focusing on too much & in reality I should just learn, the main countries, climates, regions & yield etc. My tutor told me to learn what the book says so hoping you can maybe clarify.

My notes from Level 2 were all based on the exam. You could get a question about the expected aromas from a warm climate Chardonnay and so in that respect you really are expected to know the book inside out. You might be asked which of the following produces premium Chardonnay and then be provided a list of countries so it's best you know it as much as possible. Good luck
This still valid in 2022?
