I this (or comparable with) an official academic Master degree, like all other academic degrees (MBA, MSc, etc.)?
No, it is not issued by an accredited academic institution, but in terms of the work required I have read that it takes roughly a year of full-time study and writing to prepare, and even then passing is by no means guaranteed. Wnissen13:46, 27 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
The Master of Wine qualification is most certainly like a masters degree and its title is protected.It almost always takes a candidate several years to complete as it is first necessary to study and pass the Wine and Spirit Education Trust series of examinations (or equivalent) culminating with their Diploma. In my experience it is also necessary to spend time in the field working alongside winemakers and viticulturalists whilst debating as widely as possible the many issues which constantly arise in the broader wine industry. In addition the candidate needs to have sufficient in depth wine tasting experience and to be able to articulate taste responses in a comprehensive manner.

Looking back, some of what I wrote above appears to be incorrect. The article describes a three-stage programme that includes written exams and the writing of a research paper (roughly equivalent to a thesis). It does not describe taking specific classes of coursework, and the programme sounds roughly to be an apprenticeship. The description is not sourced, but I have no reason to believe it is incorrect. I still think this is more of a professional certification than a degree – e.g., because it is not issued by a university (as said by Wnissen, by an "accredited educational institution"). That is not to say that it is a lesser qualification than an academic Master's degree – it is probably more difficult to obtain than many Master's degrees, but just that it is different from a Masters degree. —BarrelProof (talk) 18:03, 20 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
