For wine schools. Help your students learn, between classes.

Three options for wine schools

We work with wine schools all over the world, from schools with a handful of students to institutions with well over a thousand. There are three ways to work together:

1. Embedded access in your portal. For very large schools (200+ students): purchase your students’ subscriptions at a discount, embedded directly in your school’s student portal.

2. Group subscriptions. Groups of 25 or more get an attractive discount on subscription prices.

3. Student discount code. Offer your students a custom discount code to buy their own subscription.

Why students need more than class time

Students only spend part of their study hours in class; the rest is up to them. Many do not know where to start, and many say they are visual learners. In fact everyone learns better through several channels at once. Research on multimedia learning (Mayer, 2003) shows that people learn more deeply from well-designed combinations of words and pictures than from words alone.

Seeing a vineyard slope, a cellar or a winemaking technique turns abstract textbook facts into something students remember. Subtitles help international students with wine vocabulary.

What your students get

WineMasters Class: 48 episodes that cover the regions of WSET Level 3, one by one, taught by Masters of Wine and champion sommeliers, each with a wine experiment, food pairings and blind tastings explained.

WineMasters Class Grand Cru: on location in the top sites of Bordeaux and Champagne.

WineMasters documentaries: the families and places behind great wines, from Angélus and Drouhin to Sherry and Valpolicella, presented by Masters of Wine.

All independent and never sponsored. Students can watch in the browser and on the mobile and TV apps.

A study guide for your students

We created a research-based WSET Level 3 study guide that shows students where to start and which study techniques actually work. On request, we can customize it with your school’s logo and contact details for your current and future students.

About WineMasters.TV

WineMasters.TV was founded by Klaas de Jong, an award-winning film director and producer. Each documentary is filmed over several seasons with the wine family, to capture the full life cycle of the vineyard. The idea started at a dinner when a guest refused a Chablis because he wanted “a Chardonnay”: so much wine knowledge was missing, and video could fill the gap.

The original wine school guide was written by Patricia Wilcox within the Erasmus Mundus Master on Wine Tourism Innovation (WINTOUR), funded by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union; it reflects the views of the author only.
