Why Are Our Courses So Affordable?
We have developed a range of stand-alone wine courses labelled as WSET Revision Courses.
These courses are independently created to support learners by covering the learning outcomes outlined in the WSET specifications, but they do not include an examination or qualification.
We created these revision courses in response to demand from students who wish to learn about wine without sitting the WSET exam or gaining certification.
Following guidance from WSET, these courses are not sold as WSET qualifications and are clearly positioned as revision and learning support only.
By excluding the exam and certification element, these revision courses are:
- More affordable, as no examination fee is included
- More accessible, as they are delivered fully online and can be studied globally
Disclaimer: These courses are independent WSET Revision Courses designed to support learning in line with WSET specifications. They do not include an exam, qualification, or certification and are not official WSET courses.

Who Are WSET?
The Wine & Spirit Education Trust (WSET) is widely known for its structured approach to wine education and is often used as a reference framework across the wine industry.
Whether you’re a total beginner, a passionate wine lover, or someone looking to elevate your professional profile, WSET wine education gives you structured, reliable, and enjoyable wine knowledge that actually sticks.
Our revision courses are not the WSET Award in Wine qualification or examination - why not?
We have found the majority of our students don't want or need the Qualification or Certification - they just want great education and useful wine knowledge.
So, we created revision courses designed to reflect similar learning outcomes of the WSET Specifications for each level - making wine knowledge more accessible and affordable to everyone.
No snobbery. No overwhelm. Just clear, confidence-boosting knowledge you can use every day.
Where Should You Start?
WSET Level 1 - beginners
Does the world of wine feel scary? Or do you get confused with grapes and wines. Chardonnay is a grape, Chablis is a wine....but it's made from Chardonnay.
Or if you want to learn the basics before jumping to Level 2 - lots of people find this useful.
Have you ever wondered what makes rosé wine pink?
WSET Level 2 - beginners / intermediate
Enhance your wine knowledge by understanding wine labels, learning the jargon, and exploring more grapes and regions after Level 1.
Discover what a cool climate Chardonnay, like a Chablis, tastes like compared to a warmer climate Chardonnay, like a Napa Valley.
Plus what the winemaker can do to change the structure and flavour of the wine.
WSET Level 3 - advanced
Explore both broader and deeper aspects of wine through our online wine courses. Designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of the factors that influence the style, quality, and price of the principal still, sparkling, and fortified wines of the world.

about Red Grape Coaching
Our Mission
At Red Grape Coaching, we strive to enhance your wine knowledge and appreciation through engaging experiences. Join us on a journey where every sip tells a story, and every grape has a history... and here's my story.
Snowed in on a skiing holiday, with nothing to do, we decided to book a wine tasting at the local wine bar. The sommelier opened six bottles from the stunning Aosta Valley region.
We tasted, we listened, and we were hooked. The standout bottle was the Sangue di Giuda - an unusual, delicious sweet, sparkling red!
When we got back to London, I enrolled in WSET courses, starting at the Level 1. I learned loads of valuable stuff, tasted lots of wines, and eventually left my banking job to open a Wine School in London, where I now offer online wine courses. #lovemyjob
Frequently Asked Questions
Please reach us at sam@redgrapecoaching.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.
No. If you have some wine knowledge you can start at Level 2. We do not recommend starting at Level 3 - the jump from 2 to 3 is a big one!
Book the revision course, you get instant access. Complete each module, and each one is followed by some quiz questions, just to make sure we've nailed the learning objectives.
The WSET have been very strict, not allowing us the sell the courses and exams separately. Only selling the course and the exam together in a package - this makes wine education very expensive. We have found most students don't want or need the Qualification and Certification. They just want to learn in a structured way. So creating these courses meant we had to label them as Revision Courses per WSET Governance.
The exam is online, and every exam recording is watched back by WSET invigilators - who have to charge us for their time. Plus there is some admin around recording details, and registering students.
We decided to split the exam and the course as some people just want to do the course, learn the content and not worry about the exam at all. As at Feb 2026 WSET have stopped us selling the exam separately. Please get in touch to discuss options.
We can send you a list of “key wines” that you can purchase from your own wine supplier.
Or you can also opt to order a selection of sample wines (Vinottes). Each package contains the recommended samples for every qualification (except sparkling wines) and offers an affordable and easy way to taste a wide range of representative styles. You can order these samples at www.e-tasting.com.
