"wine"

Vinhos Deluxe Edition is a tight, thematic economic game that rewards commitment and punishes carelessness. Vital Lacerda's winemaking simulation integrates its theme so deeply into the mechanics that the rules, while numerous, make intuitive sense once you stop fighting them. The learning curve is real, the teaching burden is heavy, and casual play is not what this game was built for. But for players willing to invest the time, Vinhos delivers one of the most satisfying strategic puzzles in the hobby, a game where twelve actions across six rounds somehow feel like an entire career in wine.
