Passed my Certified Sommelier test through the Court of Master Sommeliers. I had a really good experience over the three days of lectures/tastings/testing. They don't give you your score, but I am pretty sure I crushed. Blind tasting was a California chard and a Cab based Bordeaux. I may have missed three questions out of forty on the theory exam, but I think I only missed one. During the service portion of the test, I incorrectly said Punt e Mes vermouth was from Spain. I stumbled a bit on pairing a new world wine with Mushroom Risotto, but recovered nicely. I will write more about what the test was like when I have more time. I also feel the need to post a pic of my lapel pin.
Play well. Do good work. Keep in touch.
