Bio
R. Kat Morse
Lionel's knowledge and passion for wine shines through in his enthusiasm and teaching. He can convey complicated terms and processes in an easy to understand manner. In addition to his talent at teaching, Lionel is also very good at wine tasting and wine selection. We worked together to select many wines and he is adept and finding the criteria we need and also understanding the dynamics of pricing. I enjoyed working with Lionel and hope to do so again in the future.

Lionel is a great WSET teacher. I studied both WSET 2 and 3 under his tutelage in 2017/18. Lionel is empathetic and understands how to communicate the complexity of wine production/regions effectively and clearly. He pushes you to make the connections on your own but is also able to steer you right on specific topics/challenges - with some added (and needed) humour too.
