Following the completion of the MW exam in centres worldwide last week, The Institute of Masters of Wine have published the 2024 exam questions and wines and they can be found here, along with the accompanying questions.
The practical and theory exams form the second stage of the MW study programme. Over four days, students sat three 12-wine blind practical papers and five theory papers on the subjects of viticulture; vinification and pre-bottling procedures; handling of wines; the business of wine; and contemporary issues. This year 145 students sat the MW exam in centres in Adelaide, London and Napa between 4-8 June.
Those who successfully pass the stage two theory and practical exams will progress to stage three, the research paper, the final stage of the MW study programme.
