April 17: Level 1 CCG Workshop at Wölffer Estate
Wölffer Estate Vineyards is excited to collaborate with the American Cider Association to host an in person workshop for the Certified Cider Professional Program Level 1 Certified Cider Guide at their cidery. The Level 1 Certified Cider Guide Workshop will be held April 17, 2024 at 1:00 PM Eastern at Wolffer Estate Vineyard, 139 Sagg Road, Sagaponack, New York 11962.
Cost per person is $189 which includes the in person training, instructor led tasting, and test fee. Participants will be able to take the test online immediately after the training or take the test at a later date. ACA members can contact Education Operations Manager Jennie Dorsey for a member discount code.
This is a great opportunity for the New York cider community to gather in person to attend the workshop and get CCG certified. Registration to this event will include a tour.
Lunch and cider will also be available for purchase at our tasting room after the training.
We would love to see anyone who sells cider, works in a tasting room or retail shop, chefs, sommeliers, cicerones, buyers and cidermakers who are interested in cider education and adding a cider certification to their accreditation sign up and join us!
