Testimonials & Press

MW Candidate, Subscriber

"I appreciate the thoughtful selections. In every package I have found textbook examples mixed with emerging styles and "stretch wines" that force me to think. The selections align with what I expect to see on an MW exam paper. I can also vouch for the excellent condition in which the wines arrive. They are fault-free and show beautifully ... high standard packaging quality which would make for an exquisite corporate gift." - Anne C

The Washington Post

"I’ve tasted through a few Master the World kits, and it’s a humbling experience. Ultimately, though, the point isn’t to validate your impressions of wine against those of a few people with red pins on their lapels. The goal is to learn what to look for while tasting high-quality, representative wines from around the world so that you can appreciate the variety and nuance wine has to offer."
- Wine Journalist, Dave McIntyre.

Robb Report

"Blind tasting wine—sniffing and sipping with no other information than whether it’s white or red—is humbling. It’s also irresistible. Master the World is a monthly subscription blind-tasting kits, newly available to wine enthusiasts with any level of tasting experience (or lack thereof) ... in praise of the program ... I came out substantially enlightened about tell-tale characteristics of varieties and regions." - Wine Journalist. Sara Schneider
