  • Welcome to the first video in my Wine and Spirit Education Trust (WSET) Level 2 quiz series. I noticed that a lot of folks are not creating their own test questions from the content so I wanted to contribute to the learning community by making up a bunch of questions on my own. These videos are not lectures and are intended for those who have already studied the chapter so they can test their knowledge and ability to apply the concepts in the material. If you want more information in the form of lectures, then I recommend:

      Good luck on your test! These questions are a mix of straight forward questions and quirky ones that make you apply your knowledge differently. The test will be much more like the questions that are in the book or my non-goofy questions.

      Isn't that the point!? And doesn't he state that in the first five minutes. 😳 I am Coming up on my Wset two exam and one thing I've learned during this process is that you can study to the book and pass the exam. Or you can really apply yourself and thoroughly learn wine on the level that you should know wine to pass the exam.. which in turn will also give you that passing score. But of the twice options, is much more fulfilling. And depending on Your goals, a more valuable achievement.
      This video is a great example of how you can get Fully involved in what wset aims to teach you. It's beyond the just study the questions and pass the exam, mentality.
      But that's just where I am at and why I value it. Plus the corky aspect of questioning is right up my alley so the material seems to stick more so than if it were a straightforward black-and-white no bullshit kind of video.
      Keep them coming!

    Thanks for your humorous take on the Level 2 content. I’m a fellow acid junky about to do the WSET Level 2 course at WSET school in London. I’ll ask them about the strange flavour descriptors - red apple being a green fruit and cherries not being a stone fruit… 🤷🏻‍♀️

    • @WineOnTheDime

      Yeah, let me know what they say. I'd be interested to understand their approach for that categorization.

    Very very nice! Loved all the questions! 24 out of 25. Got question 12 wrong.... 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Ok not really... 6 got me....had 2 “it depends” answers and picked the wrong one... I’d love to debate 23.... I did get it right but with a logarithmic scale, 4 is a big jump from 3.3.....but that’s the science geek in me...

    • @WineOnTheDime
      @WineOnTheDime  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I put number six in because I had a similar question on my WSET 2 and I'm very sure it was one of the two questions I missed on the test. As for 23, There is a space where red wines and white wines overlap in their overall acidity, but white wines tend to have a lower pH. On that note, I had an Eiswein from 1971 the other day and I'm sure the pH was under 3. I drank a glass and felt like my throat was chemically burned. I would add that wine to my "if money wasn't an issue" list though. It was amazing!

    • @carlcadregari7768
      @carlcadregari7768 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks Stuart. I’ll let you know if I have a question like that on my test. 👍👍👍. And I do love icewines. Being close to the Niagara AVA and only 2 hours from Inniskillin on.inniskillin.com/Wines/Icewine/Vidal-Icewine I can have a bunch of different tastings. But I am a fan of the Vidal, probably due to the fact it was the first one I ever tried a long long time ago.

    Hello there, Thank you for your videos, they helped me passed the WSET Level 2 with distinction at 86% of correct answers. I emailed the person who provided me with the results, requesting to know what questions I missed, and he said that the UK office don't allow to provide that information. I told them that they should be able to provide that information, in order for us to learn more and improve our knowledge by knowing what we missed. Any body here feel that this academies are already going through untrusted feeling of their reputations and when they denied easy information like that, they become not reliable like what happened to the MS of Sommeliers? I think they should provide the information to be trust, your thoughts, anyone????

    • @WineOnTheDime
      @WineOnTheDime  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I'm glad that this video was able to help with your exam. Congratulations on getting distinction! As for the grading, I would like to know overall sections that I need to study more. I think that could be helpful, especially if moving into the WSET 3 or Diploma.

      As for tips: make sure to look over the test breakdown in the spec book. They have the weighted breakdown of what percentage of questions will be on the test. You can spend your study time to match the weight of the sections.

    for question 9 you assume that there intensity is. What if the aroma has no intensity at all? You can't say low because there is no aroma at all.

    • @WineOnTheDime
      @WineOnTheDime  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Great question! Off of the top of my head, I can think of two things that would cause a wine to have no nose at all. First, is that it's just not a highly aromatic grape. In this case, going with light would be appropriate. However, if you're getting nothing at all, then the wine may have a wine fault called Oxidation. This is from too much oxygen exposure to the wine breaking down the phenolics in the wine. On the palate, the wine will taste dull or "flat." In some extreme cases, they can have funky tastes like wet wool.

    You contradicted yourself at 7.25 question 5 where you said dark to describe the appearance of the wine which is the answer (Dark) to question 3 please correct me if I am wrong

    • @WineOnTheDime
      @WineOnTheDime  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Good question! I can see where you think it's a contradiction but, in the context of that explanation, it's not. Question 3 focuses on the "official" descriptors that you must use when describing wine according to the WSET. In the later question, I was just causally discussing how to tell the difference between colors. If I was officially describing the wine according to WSET, then I would have used pale, medium, or deep on the sheet.

    This is a dummy quiz, and nothing similar to any question style in the book. Thanks for trying anyway.

    • @WineOnTheDime
      @WineOnTheDime  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Some of the questions are totally tongue-in-cheek, but a good number of them are similar to what I saw on the test when I our practice test and the actual exam. When did you take it? I'm wondering if the question format has changed.
