Description

Archive Academy is a wine education institution located above Archive Wine Bar in Geelong, Victoria.

We offer face to face courses in our classroom and we travel to regional areas of Victoria to bring drinks education to hospitality professionals and drinks enthusiasts. Our mission is to increase knowledge and confidence about various drinks by providing flexible opportunities to access beer, wine and spirits education.

We believe anyone should be able to study beer, wine and spirits qualifications from anywhere in Australia, or the rest of the world, and invite you to review our WSET Online Classroom course timetable, along with affordable beer, wine and spirits samples packs, offered through Archive Academy.

“A true wine lovers paradise here” 

This glowing review and Three Glass Rating from the 2024 Australia’s Wine List of the Year Awards really captures what it is all about for owners Ingrid and Graham Sutherland.  They have spent the last six years focusing their efforts on sharing their love and knowledge of wine through their regular schedule of wine tasting events and experiences.

The by the glass collection is thunderous and extremely impressive, ranging from entry level wines of interest through to gob-smacking rarities poured via Coravin.”
