The applicant must be employed by the winery and therefore permitted to take the time off to attend Plumpton College courses on a module basis to learn about every aspect of winemaking. The Vintners’ Company will pay for the cost of the courses plus reasonable travel and accommodation costs. The winner will also be able to study for the WSET Level 3 qualification, sponsored by the WSET.
Applicants should be under the age of 30, and be ready to commit to a long-term career in the wine industry.Â
