Tinta Academy offers WSET Level in Wines 2 for the first time in Uruguay

Wine education in Uruguay reaches a new milestone with the arrival of WSET Level 2, now available at Tinta Academy, the first WSET Approved Programme Provider (APP) in Uruguay. The Wine & Spirit Education Trust (WSET) is one of the most renowned institutions in wine and spirits education worldwide, with its certifications being among the most prestigious in the industry.

At Tinta Academy, we offer both WSET Level 1, ideal for those beginning their journey in the world of wine, and WSET Level 2, designed to deepen knowledge on wine regions, styles, production factors, and professional tasting techniques. These qualifications provide a strong foundation for career advancement in the wine industry or for enthusiasts looking to expand their expertise with globally recognized standards.

WSET Level 2 is a unique opportunity for wine professionals, sommeliers, and enthusiasts who seek to enhance their knowledge through a structured and internationally recognized program. Through both theoretical and practical training, students explore wine regions, styles, production factors, and professional tasting techniques, gaining essential skills to advance in the industry.

The Tinta Academy team, formed by Gabi Zimmer (sommelier, Certified WSET Educator, author, and taster for Tim Atkin MW), Agustín Álvarez Alcaire (sommelier, WSET Advanced, Master in Wine Business, and Bachelor in International Relations), and Camila Arocena (Bachelor in Communication), guides students through this learning experience, providing the necessary preparation to achieve WSET certification.

With this initiative, Tinta Academy places Uruguay on the global wine education map, offering access to a qualification that allows students to speak the international language of wine and advance their careers with excellence.
