  1. WSET drops Greek goddess from logo in brand overhaul

    The Wine & Spirit Education Trust (WSET) is removing the figure of Ariadne from its logo and adopting a simplified identity, as part of a wider rebrand to reflect its broader scope beyond wine. The changes, which were unveiled at the orga…

  3. Passed my #WSET 1 exam. Maybe I should pursue wines as a career fall back plan... A gentleman vintner perhaps.

  4. Have booked myself in to do my WSET Level 3 Spirits Award later in the year.

    It's not cheap, especially as a freelancer, but L2 was totally worth the money so I'm confident I'll get a return from this one too.

    Looking forward to nerding out in the classroom again.

  5. I just found out that I passed my WSET 3 sake exam with full distinction, across both theory and tasting.

  6. CW: Alcohol - Wine tasting for WSET Level 3

    Last night's tasting.

    I don't always love Italian reds, they are sometimes too firm, and too medicinal/herbal for me. But this Barolo was pretty great. Soft, a little floral with vanilla and lush ripe cherries, mint, leather, and a hint of minerality.

  10. Yesterday's tasting: Bordeaux and Rhone.

    A Chablis Premier Cru, a Sancerre, a Haut-Médoc Cru Borgeois Supérieur, a Saint Emilion Grand Cru & a Châteauneuf du Pape.

    These were are great wines. I tend to dislike the strong herbal notes that came through in the Haut-Médoc, but it's still a good wine. The Châteauneuf du Pape was amazing. The Chablis and the Saint Emilion were also pretty spectacular.

    This is probably the best group of wines I've had for a tasting yet.

  12. Hello...New account here.

    Nice to meet you.

    I am a socialist, small-L liberal, feminist with a penchant for science communication, wine and insanely long fantasy books. I appear domesticated due to my love of baking, knitting and cleaning with steam, but I'm actually quite feral.

    I plan to open a wine bar in my little town someday.

    And I want to live in New Orleans when I retire.
