Considering a formal study program for champagne? Or hoping to learn more about champagne on your own? I’ve pretty much taken everything out there – below are my favourite resources and candid thoughts on the programs.

In-Person Programs

• Tyson Stelzer’s Advanced Champagne Certificate: take your understanding of production techniques to the next level through tasting.
• Comite Champagne Specialist Course: a 3 day class that covers production, tasting, and service.
• WSET 2: a general wine foundation course

ONLINE classes

• Comité Champagne Online: a great place to start if you’re just at the beginning of your champagne journey.
• Champagne Masterclass by Richard Juhlin: self-study via beautifully-produced videos which focus on watching Richard drink a lot of incredible champagnes.
• Champagne Masters by The Wine Scholar Guild: an expensive, in-depth program with a proctored exam.
