The Team
Sharon Grundy, WCB Founder and Head Educator
Sharon Grundy is a WSET certified educator and Sherry educator who developed her passion for wine while working in fine dining. She started her WSET journey in 2009 and, prior to her move to Barcelona, worked for Bibendum PLB in London. She founded Wine Courses Barcelona in 2015 with the aim of spreading her knowledge and love of wine to others. She completed the WSET Diploma in 2018.
“Wine, food and travel are my passions in life, and I am extremely fortunate to work in an industry I love. I believe learning about wine should be fun, not stuffy, and that goes for professional qualifications as well as informal tastings, corporate entertainment, and team building events.”
Gabriela Di Nardo, Educator and Community Manager
Born in Venezuela with an Italian background, Gaby began her professional career in the tourism industry. In 2016 she obtained her Sommelier Diploma from CETT and completed the WSET Diploma in 2021. She’s now begun her journey to be a Master of Wine! Gaby’s work in the wine industry has been focused on retail and distribution, where she has had the joy to share her passion for wine with many people from around the world.
“For me, the best part about wine is not the wine itself but rather the culture and stories behind it. Learning about wine has given me much more than a professional career; it has also become my hobby. I feel lucky to be able to share this wonderful world with the students at Wine Courses Barcelona!”
