Texas Wine Certification Course
Our ambassadors in the Texas wine industry play a crucial role in catering to a diverse consumer base, ranging from newcomers to seasoned enthusiasts. To meet consumers at different stages of their Texas wine journey, these ambassadors need a deep understanding of our product and origin, as well as the ability to effectively communicate its significance. Our engaging course for Direct-to-Consumer (DTC) professionals combines interactive exercises, storytelling, and tastings to ensure they can confidently engage consumers and apply their knowledge. Upon completion, participants are awarded a custom Texas Wine lapel pin, symbolizing their strong expertise in wine and their focus on understanding the Texas wine industry. This comprehensive course empowers our ambassadors to connect with consumers, promote the appreciation of Texas wine and contribute to the industry's continued growth.
