So I want to be a sommelier

[Paul Wagner]

And if you want training...you might check our your local community college. They often have wine appreciation courses that can get you started. As do some restaurants and wine retailers.

If you are seriously bitten by the bug, contact Kathleen Lewis at: CourtofMS@aol.com

She is the director of the US Court of Master Sommeliers--the top wine service organization. She also works in my office, so I can verify that she is very nice and helpful. The CMS offers a wide range of classes from basic wine knowledge to extremely advanced--but even the beginning ones start at a pretty steep learning curve.
