The fourth edition promises delicious novelties for the complex taste buds of the participants, but also new opportunities for them. Competitors who want to win all the prizes in 2023 can participate in both the team stage and the individual stage. The two stages of the contest are scheduled for April 27 and 28. On the first day, the teams will be hosted by Cramele Cotnari, and on the second day, the individual competitors will fight for the grand prize at the Pleiada Restaurant. <\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The &#8220;Olympiad of good taste&#8221; will submit 12 wines to analysis, both for the team competition and for the individual one, and the tie-breaking will be decided by points. Out of the 12 wines (5 white wines, 5 red wines, 1 sparkling wine and 1 rose), 10 are Romanian and two are of international origin, but the organizers are convinced that each one will pose a challenge even to the most skilled sommeliers. <\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sommeliers (active or not), holders of any diploma (OSR, ASR, Sergiu Nedelea \u2013 Wine Taste School, WSET, independent, unauthorized, EU, etc.), people with winemaking or oenological studies and there is no number can participate in the competition, and there is no limit to the number of participants.
