“Nosis namuose” is back! For the 2026–2027 season, we once again invite you to join the Sommelier School of Lithuania wine tasting game and put your blind tasting skills to the test.
At the Sommelier School of Lithuania, our aim is not only to deepen wine knowledge but also to develop practical tasting skills. “Nosis namuose” therefore offers an excellent opportunity to assess your abilities, train your senses, and discover something new each month.
From September 2026 through May 2027, a new round of the game will take place every month, each featuring a different theme. The top participant in each round will receive a prize, and at the end of the season we will announce the overall blind tasting champion of the 2026–2027 season.
Each “Nosis namuose” wine tasting set contains samples of three wines.
ROUND ONE – SEPTEMBER
