Anne Gabriel - owner Annie's Wine Cottage, the #1 Choice on Columbus Dispatch, Wine Bar/ Shop:

"Daniel is the best...extremely knowledgeable. I highly recommend to anyone seeking to further their wine education!"

Silvia Silver - Refectory Restaurant and Wine Shop :

"A wonderful learning opportunity ... I had the pleasure of taking WSET 1 and 2 classes with Gizela & Daniel in December& January 2019. What a great couple- extremely knowledgeable ( and yet so humble) and passionate about learning and teaching others! I love wine industry -working in restaurants & retail since 2006 and prior to that working in my family vineyard - and appreciate any opportunity I have to learn... and trust me ... I learned quite a few new things taking the classes ! If you are serious about your carrier in the wine industry or just want to take your wine knowledge to the next level you owe to yourself to sign up for at least one of the classes!"

Kathleen& Matt Haws, owners Ripple Wine Bar, Convington, KY :

"My husband (Matt Haws) and I really enjoyed this hands-on class! Perfect for wine enthusiasts who just want to learn more or for those who work in the industry that want to expand their knowledge. We are looking forward to continuing onto the next course (after we pass the test in January)!"

Running a holiday sale or weekly special? Definitely promote it here to get customers excited about getting a sweet deal.

Brandon Snell, owner Soroca Imports (Wine Importer and Distributor) :

"Excellent course. Daniel has a vast knowledge of wines."

Cheers, I'm Gizela!

I am Gizela Natalia Duica, WSET Level 3 Wines Certified

I graduated “Lucian Blaga University with a degree in Psychopedagogy in 1999, in Sibiu, Romania (Transylvania area). In 2013 I and my husband founded, built and managed Vampire's Wine Company, in Transylvania, bottling wine from different producers and Research Wine Institutes, under our registered trade marks and selling them on the market. In October 2014 I've started with WSET Level 1 Award in Wines, WSET Level 2 Award in Wines and Spirits in January 2015 and WSET Level 3 Award in Wines in March 2019. I am extremely passionate about learning and tasting wines and I'd love to share these with you, beginning my career as a Wine Educator at Antique Vines LLC. I love the wine universe in all its aspects and I have the knowledge to help people to understand the styles of wines, label terminology, food pairing, wine principles and to evaluate/understand wine beyond their own taste and probably what is most important, to enjoy it! One of the things I like most are those gatherings of people where everybody speaks and laughs, clinging glasses of wine and bursting of joy. That means people relish their lives. Come to our wine classes to cling together, become a pro in wines and enjoy! Cheers! My e-mail : gizela@antiquevines.com
