  • I've been PINNED!



    That is the culmination of four years of work and six months of intense studying.

    I passed the Intro course for the Court of Master Sommeliers.

    I'm on my way. With any luck, I'll manage to make it within the suggested 5 years (given as the average length from Intro to being issued an invitation to join the Court). But I will make it.

                  Thank you, thank you.

                  Next step is the Certified Exam, then the Advanced Course Exam, then the Master Exam. I have a long way to go, but I know I can do this.

                    Congrats! (Although I must say the thread title sounds like you are now "going steady" )

                      Oh, trust me, that's been brought up a couple times. It was slightly intentional, makes for a good thread title!
