Instructors
Sharon Grundy, WCB Founder and Head Educator
Sharon Grundy is a WSET certified educator who developed her passion for wine while working in fine dining. She started her WSET journey in 2009 and went on to work for Bibendum PLB in London where she gained invaluable experience in the world of wine and spirits. She founded Wine Courses Barcelona in 2015 with the aim of spreading her knowledge and love of wine to others.
“Wine, food and travel are my passions in life, and I am extremely fortunate to work in an industry I love. I believe learning should be fun not stuffy and that goes for professional qualifications as well as informal tastings, corporate entertainment, and team building events.”
Melissa Leighty, Educator
After 13 years in the classroom teaching English literature, Melissa transitioned into the world of wine and never looked back. Now WSET L3 qualified, she works as a wine writer and educator. Melissa writes about Spanish winemakers for local and international publications and is working on a book about Catalan wine regions. She also leads wine tours around Catalunya and tastings for WCB.
“I’m thrilled to be able to apply my love of teaching to the endlessly fascinating world of wine. Seeing my students make connections in the classroom and helping them understand the evolution of a wine from vine to glass keeps me excited about what I do.”
