VIA welcomed 18 students for two intensive days of tastings and masterclasses. With the support and patronage of ITA - Italian Trade Agency, the students tasted 38 wines under the guidance of VIA Faculty member Henry Davar, IWE.

On Sunday the students submitted required video projects and faced the challenging 2.5-hour exam, composed of 2 blind tastings, a series of short answer questions, and 100 multiple-choice questions. At the end of the day, VIA was proud to announce the certification of four new Ambassadors for the USA, bringing the total to 97 in the country and 271 in the world.
