Viticulture – Essential Edition: A strategic board game set among vineyards, harvests, and Tuscan dreams.
Published by Ghenos Games and designed by Jamey Stegmaier , Viticulture Essential Edition is a strategic board game for 1-6 players set in pre-modern Tuscany. You've just inherited a small vineyard with a few plots, an old press, and a lot of passion. It's up to you to make it grow, season after season, managing workers, visitors, and opportunities to your best advantage. Games last 45 to 90 minutes and offer a perfect mix of planning, competition, and rural romance.
Featuring seasonal worker placement mechanics, every turn is a challenge to best utilize limited resources. In summer, you can plant vines, welcome visitors, and construct buildings, while in winter, it's time for harvest, production, and deliveries. Featuring the most beloved modules from the previous Tuscany expansion (such as Mamas & Papas, reimagined visitors, and the Automa solo mode), this essential edition offers a complete, elegant, and deep gaming experience. A title that will appeal to both experienced gamers and families looking for something refined and engaging.
Why you should try it
- Seasonal strategy and worker management : every season is a different challenge
- Immersive Tuscan atmosphere : experience the thrill of building your own winery
- Included modules and solo mode : essential edition, but not at all reduced
Dettagli del Prodotto
🐸 COME SI GIOCA
🍇 1. Objective
Manage your winery, produce wines, and complete orders to earn victory points . Whoever reaches 20 points and has the most at the end of the round wins.
🗓 2. The year in 4 seasons
: choose the turn and a bonus
: plant vines, build, play summer cards
: draw a visitor card
: harvest, produce wine, fulfill orders, play winter cards
👷 3. Worker Placement
Each season has limited action spaces. Workers must be placed carefully. The "great worker" can use occupied spaces.
🏗 4. Build your own engine
Plant vines → harvest → produce wine → complete orders = points + future income.
Be careful with structures: some vines require irrigation or pergolas.
🧠 5. Basic strategies
Hire additional workers as soon as possible. Visitor cards are powerful: use them wisely. Don't underestimate the income (blue dots)!

Viticulture is a board game where the harvest is unforgiving
Management and strategic board game set in the hills of a slow-paced Tuscany.
From the vineyard to victory. But it takes patience. And a little revenge.
Spend a summer pruning, an autumn receiving visitors, and a winter judging every decision.
Every shift is a toast… or a harvest anxiety.
Viticulture is a board game with seasons, choices and timing to fit together like barrels in the cellar .
Anyone who thinks making wine is romantic has never argued over a stock.
Viticulture Essential Edition – The management board game that leaves you drunk on decisions
Every season is a challenge: allocate workers , plant, make wine, build, receive guests and serve orders.
But keep an eye on time, on priorities… and on the other winemakers.
Viticulture is a strategic board game set in Tuscany , with a gentle learning curve but the soul of a management marathon runner.
Perfect for 2-6 players , it includes additional community-chosen modules and a great solo mode.
Here the vineyard is yours, but glory doesn't come by chance.
