  • 24. The Three Best Wine Books You Will Ever Own!
    Wine Educate Newsletter – Sign up for exclusive content and class updates.  Episode Description In this episode of Wine Educate, host Joanne Close shares the three essential wine books that have been her go-to resources throughout her 20+ years of WSET education. Whether you’re a beginner or an advanced student, these books will help you deepen your knowledge of wine, viticulture, winemaking, and regional geography. Joanne discusses why these books are must-haves, how to use them effectively, and what makes them invaluable for WSET students at all levels. What’s in This Episode? 1. The Oxford Companion to Wine (4th Edition) – Edited by Jancis Robinson & Julia Harding The most comprehensive wine reference book available, covering history, viticulture, winemaking, and key wine terms. First published in 1994, now in its fourth edition (2023) with hundreds of new entries, including "celebrity wine," "heat wave," "low-intervention wine," and more. How to use it: A dictionary-style reference to quickly look up unfamiliar wine terms like malolactic conversion, AVAs, and wine faults. Where to find it: Available on Amazon, thriftbooks.com, and other major booksellers. 2. The World Atlas of Wine (8th Edition) – Jancis Robinson & Hugh Johnson First published in the 1960s, this book remains the definitive wine atlas, featuring detailed maps of the world’s wine regions. The altitude and topography maps help students visualize key wine-growing areas. How to use it: Essential for Level 2 & Level 3 students to memorize major cities, rivers, and wine regions. Also includes fundamental wine knowledge, making it an excellent reference for beginner and intermediate students. 3. Understanding Wine Technology (4th Edition) – David Bird MW A technical yet accessible book that simplifies complex winemaking processes, chemistry, and equipment. Originally written to support Level 3 students, this book is a perfect supplement to the WSET study materials. How to use it: Great for understanding fermentation, stabilizing agents, wine faults, and bridging the gap between science and practical wine knowledge. The latest edition (2022) is co-authored by a French winemaker based in Portland for even more real-world insight. Final Thoughts These three books should be on every wine student’s nightstand—they provide the foundation for serious wine study and exploration. There are many other amazing wine books out there, and Joanne will cover more in future episodes! Have a favorite wine book? Share it on Instagram @wineeducate!

  • 23. Understanding Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary Aromas & Flavors
    Wine Educate Newsletter – Sign up for exclusive content and class updates.  Episode Description In this episode of Wine Educate, host Joanne Close explores the essential primary, secondary, and tertiary aromas and flavors in wine. Identifying and categorizing these aromas is a crucial skill for WSET Level 3 students, as they play a key role in tasting notes and determining a wine’s development. Joanne breaks down how these aromas are classified, why they matter for the Systematic Approach to Tasting (SAT), and common student struggles when learning to differentiate them. She also shares practical study tips and wine examples to help students sharpen their tasting skills. Follow along with Level 3 Bootcamp: Instagram @wineeducate (#L3Boot2025) Wine Educate Newsletter – Sign up for exclusive content and class updates.  What’s in This Episode? 1. WSET Level 3 Bootcamp Update Joanne is wrapping up her Level 3 Bootcamp and heading back home. If you’re interested in future bootcamps or wine trips, subscribe to the newsletter for updates. 2. Why Understanding Aromas & Flavors Matters Primary, secondary, and tertiary aromas and flavors are crucial for describing wines accurately. In WSET Level 3, identifying tertiary aromas (or the lack of them) determines whether a wine is youthful or developing. Wines can have different combinations of these aromas—some may be all primary, while others may show secondary and tertiary characteristics. 3. Primary Aromas & Flavors Source: Directly from the grape variety and fermentation process. Categories: Floral: Elderflower, violet, rose, chamomile Herbaceous: Grass, green bell pepper, asparagus Fruit: Citrus, red fruit, black fruit, tropical, dried Spice: Black pepper Examples: Sauvignon Blanc: Gooseberry, passion fruit, elderflower Cabernet Sauvignon (unoaked): Black currant, green bell pepper, mint Syrah (unoaked): Blackberry, black pepper, violet 4. Secondary Aromas & Flavors Source: Derived from fermentation and maturation choices (winemaking techniques). Key Influences: Lees Contact: Biscuit, bread, dough, brioche, yogurt Malolactic Conversion (MLF): Butter, butterscotch, cream Oak Aging: Vanilla, coconut, smoke, toast, clove, cedar, coffee, chocolate Examples: Champagne: Strong lees influence due to extended time on lees. Oaked Chardonnay: MLF (butter) + Lees influence (biscuit, brioche) + Oak (vanilla, toast, baking spice) Grand Cru Classé Bordeaux: Clear oak influence (cedar, tobacco, vanilla, spice) 5. Tertiary Aromas & Flavors Source: Develop due to bottle aging or oxidation in oak. Types of Aging: Oxidative Maturation (oak aging): Walnut, coffee, caramel Bottle Aging (anaerobic development): Leather, mushroom, tobacco, petrol, honey Examples: Aged Riesling: Petrol, honey, dried apricot Aged Bordeaux: Cedar, tobacco, earth Vintage Port: Dried fruit, fig, nutty aromas 6. Common Student Struggles & Tips Practice is key—many students struggle because they are not used to focusing on aromas in daily life. Use your SAT card—but be specific! Writing “citrus” won’t earn points; list lemon, lime, or grapefruit instead. Tertiary aromas can be tricky—some honey aromas in botrytized wines (e.g., Sauternes, Tokaji) are primary, not tertiary. Dried fruit can be primary or tertiary—depends on how the wine was made (e.g., Amarone uses dried grapes but is still youthful). Group tasting is essential—try tasting older wines together to identify tertiary characteristics. Final Thoughts & Study Tips Calibrate your palate—practice with study groups and compare tasting notes. Don't rush—building aroma recognition takes time and repetition.

  • 22. Tasting a Full-Bodied Red Wine Using the WSET SAT
    Wine Educate Newsletter – Sign up for exclusive content! Episode Description In this episode of Wine Educate, host Joanne Close leads a guided tasting of a full-bodied red wine using the WSET Systematic Approach to Tasting (SAT). This episode builds on the Structural Components Series, helping students apply what they’ve learned to a real-world tasting scenario. Joanne walks through the tasting process at WSET Levels 1, 2, and 3, explaining how assessment evolves with each level. She discusses Carménère from Chile, a highly testable wine known for its distinctive structure and flavor profile, and shares valuable tips for calibrating your palate. Follow along with Level 3 Bootcamp: Instagram @wineeducate (#L3Boot2025) What’s in This Episode? 1. WSET Level 3 Bootcamp Update Joanne and her students are in France for an intensive Level 3 study session at Château Camplazens. The group will take a full-length practice exam to refine their time management and essay writing skills. After the exam, they’ll celebrate with lunch at La Cranquette in Gruissan. Follow along on Instagram @wineeducate for study tips and updates.   2. Introduction to the Tasting Exercise This tasting applies everything covered in the Structural Components Series. The wine selected is the 2020 Apaltagua Envero Gran Reserva Carménère from Colchagua Valley, Chile. Carménère is a highly testable wine at WSET Levels 2 and 3.   3. Understanding Carménère Originally from Bordeaux, Carménère thrives in Chile, where it produces full-bodied, high-tannin wines. Key characteristics include: High tannins, high acidity, and high alcohol Black fruit (blackberry, black plum, black currant) Herbaceous notes (green bell pepper, eucalyptus) Oak influence (smoke, cedar, coffee, cocoa) For many years, Chilean Carménère was mistaken for Merlot due to its similar appearance and structure.   4. Tasting at WSET Levels 1, 2, and 3 WSET Level 1 Tasting Note Appearance: Red wine Nose: Black fruit, oak, and an herbaceous note Palate: Dry, high acidity, high tannins, high alcohol, full-bodied WSET Level 2 Tasting Note Appearance: Medium ruby Nose: Pronounced intensity of black fruit, green bell pepper, eucalyptus, smoke, cedar, coffee, chocolate Palate: Dry, high acidity, high tannins, high alcohol, full-bodied Pronounced flavor intensity with a long finish WSET Level 3 Tasting Note Appearance: Medium ruby Nose: Pronounced aromas of green bell pepper, eucalyptus, blackberry, black plum, black currant, smoke, cedar, coffee, cocoa Additional aromas: Petrol, rubber (e.g., tennis ball can, bicycle tire), red currant, red apple skin Palate: Dry, high acidity, medium-plus to high tannins, high alcohol, full-bodied Pronounced flavor intensity Medium-plus to long finish   5. BLIC Analysis (Balance, Length, Intensity, Complexity) Balance: Well-balanced structure Length: Medium-plus to long finish Intensity: Pronounced flavors Complexity: Mostly primary and secondary characteristics, not yet complex Final Assessment: Very good, can drink now but has potential for aging Final Thoughts & Study Tips Practice your tasting regularly—calibrate your palate by tasting different wines side by side. Trust your instincts and your tasting note—confidence comes with repetition. Don’t get discouraged—tasting skills improve with time and experience.

  • 21. Evaluating The Finish of a Wine
    Wine Educate Newsletter – Sign up for exclusive content! Episode Description In this episode of Wine Educate Podcast, host Joanne Close wraps up the Structural Components Series with a deep dive into evaluating the finish of a wine using the WSET Systematic Approach to Tasting (SAT). Finish, also known as length, is one of the trickiest components to define and assess, yet it carries significant weight in the WSET Level 3 exam. Joanne unpacks the controversy around defining finish, explains common pitfalls students face, and provides practical strategies for assessing finish objectively. She also shares examples of short, medium, and long finishes, discusses how to separate structure from flavor, and offers a practical exercise to refine your tasting skills. If you're preparing for WSET Level 3, this is an episode you don't want to miss. Follow along with Level 3 Bootcamp: Instagram @wineeducate (#L3Boot2025) Wine Educate Newsletter – Sign up for exclusive content and class updates. What’s in This Episode? 1. WSET Level 3 Bootcamp Update Joanne is currently in France, leading a week-long immersive study session at Château Camplazens. The focus: mastering the theory exam – essay writing, vineyard visits, and a full mock exam. Follow along on Instagram @wineeducate for updates, study tips, and behind-the-scenes moments. 2. What is Finish in Wine? Oxford Companion to Wine Definition: "A much-derided tasting term for wines whose impact on the palate is particularly persistent." WSET Level 3 SAT Definition: Finish (or length) is the persistence of multiple pleasant flavors after swallowing or spitting the wine. Key takeaway: A wine must have more than one pleasant flavor lingering to be considered a long finish. 3. Common Mistakes When Evaluating Finish Mistaking structure for finish: acidity, alcohol, and tannin are not finish. A single lingering flavor (e.g., vanilla from oak) does not equal a long finish. Multiple unpleasant flavors do not count as a long finish. 4. Classifying Finish in WSET SAT Short Finish: The wine disappears almost immediately. Examples: Basic Pinot Grigio, Beaujolais Nouveau, Entry-level Sauvignon Blanc from Chile or South Africa. Medium Finish: Lingers for a few seconds before fading. Examples: Petit Chablis, Rioja Crianza, Mid-tier Cabernet Sauvignon from Chile or Australia. Most wines fall into this category. Long Finish: Flavors persist for a prolonged period. Examples: Ice wine, Mosel Riesling, high-quality Bordeaux, Barolo, or Burgundy. Does not require primary, secondary, and tertiary aromas—some high-quality primary-driven wines can have a long finish. 5. Practice Exercise: How to Train Your Palate for Finish Take a sip of wine and wait 10-15 seconds after swallowing or spitting. Write down any lingering flavors you still taste. Try this with different wines to compare short, medium, and long finishes. Bonus: If you struggle with finish assessment, ask your WSET instructor for calibration guidance—they are the ones grading your paper.

  • 20. Structural Components of Wine: Body
    Wine Educate Newsletter – Sign up for exclusive content! and class updates! Episode Description: In this episode of Wine Educate, host Joanne Close continues the Structural Components Series with an in-depth look at Body in Wine. What makes a wine feel light, medium, or full-bodied? How do alcohol, sugar, tannin, and acidity influence perception? Joanne breaks it all down, shares key study tips for WSET students, and provides a fun at-home exercise to help train your palate. Plus, she gives an update on her upcoming Level 3 Bootcamp in France and invites listeners to follow along on Instagram @wineeducate. Resources: Previous episodes in the Structural Components Series: Episode 16: Structural Components of Wine: Acidity Episode 17: Tasting a Tokaji Aszú Using the SAT Episode 18: Structural Components of Wine: Tannin Episode 19: Structural Components of Wine: Alcohol  Follow along with Level 3 Bootcamp: Instagram @wineeducate (#L3Boot2025) Wine Educate Newsletter – Sign up for exclusive content and class updates!   What’s in This Episode: 1. WSET Level 3 Bootcamp Update Joanne is heading to Château Camplazens on France for a week-long immersive study session with six students. The focus: Mastering the Theory Exam – essay writing, vineyard visits, and a full mock exam. Follow along on Instagram for updates and study tips. 2. What is Body in Wine? Oxford Companion to Wine Definition: Body refers to the weight and viscosity of a wine in the mouth. WSET Level 3 Definition: Body is the overall impression of a wine’s weight and texture. Unlike acidity or alcohol, there is no technical measurement for body—it’s a subjective perception. Key takeaway: Body is not an indicator of quality! A light-bodied wine can be just as outstanding as a full-bodied one. 3. Factors That Influence Body Alcohol: High alcohol = full body. Low alcohol = light body. Sugar: More residual sugar = fuller body (e.g., Sauternes, Ice Wine). Tannin: High tannin contributes to a perception of full body (e.g., Nebbiolo, Bordeaux blends). Concentration & Extraction: Wines from low-yield vineyards or extended maceration can feel more full-bodied. 4. WSET SAT (Systematic Approach to Tasting) Body Scale Light-bodied: Muscadet, Beaujolais, New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. Medium-bodied: Merlot, Côtes du Rhône, White Zinfandel, Sancerre. Full-bodied: Napa Chardonnay, Barossa Shiraz, Sauternes. 5. At-Home Body Tasting Exercise Grab three types of milk: Skim (light body), Whole (medium body), Heavy Cream (full body). Compare how they feel in your mouth—this mimics how body is perceived in wine. Bonus: Have a wine tasting session using low, medium, and high alcohol wines to reinforce the concept. Final Thoughts & Study Tips: When in doubt, consider alcohol and sugar—they are the biggest indicators of body. Pay attention to your own body perception tells—Joanne feels high alcohol in her ears!
