Create the most prosperous winery in Italy from the Tuscan vineyard you've inherited.

1–6 Players | 45–90 Min | Age: 13+

Old-world Tuscany awaits your winemaking skill and strategic cunning. You’ll plant vines, harvest grapes, age wines, and fill merchant orders to create the greatest winery in Italy!

In Viticulture, you find yourself in rustic, pre-modern Tuscany, where you’ve inherited a meager vineyard. You own a few plots of land, an old crush pad, a tiny cellar, a few workers…and the dream of owning the best winery in Italy.

Your job is to allocate your workers and helpful visitors to complete various tasks throughout the year. Each season is different on a vineyard, so the workers have different tasks they can take care of in the summer and winter. There’s competition over those tasks, and often the first worker to arrive at each one has an advantage over the rest.

Viticulture is a worker-placement game in which you improve your vineyard by building structures, planting vines, and attracting visitors, then harvest grapes, turn them into wine, and filling wine orders as you work towards the goal of owning the most successful winery in Tuscany.
