Vinhos

About this board game

Vinhos is a trading and economic game for 2–4 players, lasting about 135 minutes, in which winemakers develop vineyards and produce wine in Portugal.

Across six years of harvests, expand your business by establishing estates in different Portuguese regions, buying vineyards, and building wineries. Skilled oenologists can increase the quality of your wine, while careful development helps your company pursue maximum profit.

• Cultivate vines and choose suitable grape varieties.
• Hire oenologists and develop estates with vineyards and wineries.
• Sell wine to Portuguese local hangouts to establish a market presence.
• Export high-quality wines to meet the requirements of various countries.
• Present your wines at the national wine-tasting fair for fame and awards.

Quality wines can be exchanged for money or victory points. Sales provide funds to expand your company and pay your oenologists’ salaries, but financial success is only part of the challenge: a strong reputation in international markets requires consistently high-quality exports.

At periodic wine-tasting fairs, decide when to announce the wine you intend to present. The best wine is judged by its value and features, so selecting the right bottle at the right time can make a decisive difference to your company’s prestige.

With its focus on cultivation, trade, quality, and recognition, Vinhos invites you to awaken your senses and prove that you are Portugal’s finest winemaker.
