Winemaker

What Winemaker does

Wine Maker (operated by UAB "Mini Solutions") is a Lithuanian specialty retailer of wine, spirits, and gourmet food, active since around 2020 and headquartered in Vilnius. The company runs an omnichannel model combining a direct-to-consumer e-commerce storefront at winemaker.lt with two physical retail showrooms in Vilnius and Kaunas. It carries approximately 992 products across red, white, rosé, sparkling, champagne, and dessert wines; a full spirits range including whisky, cognac, gin, vodka, rum, and tequila; and a curated gourmet food assortment covering cheese, olives, chocolates, seafood, oils, meats, and Italian specialties such as Venchi chocolate and panettone. Distribution is domestic only, with courier delivery across Lithuania in 1-3 business days (excluding the Curonian Spit) and free delivery on orders over €60.

The business monetizes through three streams: one-time retail purchases via e-commerce and in-store, a monthly wine subscription (Vyno prenumerata) delivering curated bottles with tasting notes and origin stories, and a B2B/wholesale channel for event and corporate buyers accessible via a dedicated contact line. Marketing combines an editorial wine encyclopedia, active social channels on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and LinkedIn, customer testimonials, and recurring paid wine tasting events such as champagne tastings priced at €35. The technology footprint is conventional e-commerce with no proprietary platform, mobile app, API, or AI components; differentiation rests on curated European sourcing, in-store expertise, and content/community programming rather than on software or data assets.

Wine Maker serves individual wine enthusiasts, gourmet food buyers, gift purchasers, and event planners across Lithuania, with secondary wholesale service to businesses. Operating governance appears to sit within UAB "Mini Solutions" (Lithuanian private limited company, code 302546809), which also provides store security and CCTV data processing. The company is privately held with no disclosed funding rounds, no parent company, no subsidiaries, and no patents or formal certifications recorded in the available data.
