A Certified Sommelier (pronounced suh-mal-‘yAy), is formally trained by an accredited organization and is a knowledgeable wine professional, who specializes in all facets of wine service. The role is more specialized and informed than that of a wine waiter. The sommelier has a responsibility to work within the taste preference and budget of the patron.
A sommelier’s role is considered much broader than working only with wines, and must encompass all aspects of service, with an enhanced focus on wines, beers, spirits, soft drinks, cocktails, mineral waters and tobaccos.
